Bug#480726: upgrade-reports: Installation of linux kernel update fails

[Robert Brusa-2]

Package: upgrade-reports
Severity: normal

When trying to install the most recent kernel-image I get the error.
E:/var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-2.6.18-6-686_2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch3_i386.deb:
fehlgeschlagen in buffer_write(fd) (10, ret=-1)
on this machine - which is a rather old one (700 MHz). From the date of
the file (24-Apr-08) I get the impression that I installed this update
already on some other (faster) and more often used machines. And there
was no problem with it. This just for your information.

This looks like a problem with insufficient disk space on your system.
Linux kernel packages tend to be very large.

Robert confirmed that this was indeed a diskspace issue so I close this
report.
