How do I free up space on my Ubuntu root?
It’s fairly easy to copy the name of the specific older kernel you want to remove from the results that dpkg –list | grep linux-image gives you in the terminal, and then use sudo apt-get purge and paste the copied name in. Removing 3 or 4 older kernels will usually free up about a GB of space in your root drive.
