Update error for one week

NethServer Version: 6.8
Module: yum
For about one week, I have some updates which always stop with the following error:
Resolving RPM dependencies
The install/update may have failed due to metadata caching issues. Please clean the cache by clicking the button below and retry the install/update operation.
I clear the yum cache as suggested, but it doesn’t solve anything.
There is a message just before that blinks:


Anybody knows how to solve this?
Thanks
LT

The message says: kernel-…_64 needs 4MB on the /boot filesystem.

How much space is there.

Cheers.

As Eddie noted you may need to free some space on the /boot partition, by removing old unused kernels.

Searching for this error in Centos, I did this:

  • Edit /etc/yum.conf and set the following parameter
    installonly_limit=2
  • Install yum-utils:
    yum install yum-utils
  • Make an oldkernel cleanup:
    package-cleanup --oldkernels --count=2
    And I could update everything smoothly!
