Re: Etch to Lenny Upgrade Attempt
Okay; I've gone through the process and have since restarted. I
noticed that aptitude mentioned that 180 upgradeable packages were
available. It appears I've run out of space somewhere??? I'm not sure
which partition it's claiming to have out of space. Perhaps root?
The system in partitioned as:
/home (100.30 GB in size / 60.29 GB free)
/root (276 MB in size / 30.90 MB free)
/swap (2.96 GB)
/tmp (392 MB in size / 349.98 MB free)
/usr (4.77 GB in size / 3.38 GB free)
/var (2.86 GB in size / 2.13 GB free)
My upgrade attempt:
