Hello,
I want to block the kernel updates because they cannot be installed ny lack of space.
How can I block them ?

One way is to put a particular package version on "hold". See for
instance 'man aptitude':
remove, purge, hold, unhold, keep, reinstall
These commands are the same as “install”, but apply the
named action to all packages given on the command line for which it is
not overridden. The difference between hold and keep is that hold will
cause a package to be ignored by future safe-upgrade or full-upgrade
commands, while keep merely cancels any scheduled actions on the
package. unhold will allow a package to be upgraded by future
safe-upgrade or full-upgrade commands, without otherwise altering its state.
