Upgrading Kernel - Out of Disk Space



Hi list,

I updated my apt repo and there was a kernel update. I ran the update,
and received an error claiming "no space left on device." Normally, I
would do a force-uninstall for the currently running kernel (freeing
space), then install the new kernel and reboot. However, this is an
update, not a replacement. I'm not sure how to proceed. When I
installed this system, I selected automatic partitioning with an
encrypted LVM, so I imagine resizing the partition would prove
difficult. I'm not sure why the automatic partitioner didn't provide
for enough space for future updates. See below for the relevant logs.
This is on Debian Jessie.

Thanks!
