Can't upgrade

[thalesmaoa]

I got my first RevPi Core.
I've changed password, requested an upgrade and...

Need to get 274 MB of archives.
After this operation, 94.3 MB of additional disk space will be used.
E: You don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives/.

How is this possible?

E: You don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives/.

Your disk is full. You can view the disk usage of the root disk with the command "df -h /"

I do understand that is a space problem. What I'm having problem to understand is: why a fresh new device don't have space for upgrade and what I can erase. Besides, I did install NodeRed without space problem, and the available space is the same.

I can't understand how to fix it.

[nicolaiB]

Please provide more details about your setup:

Output of df -h I mentioned above
Which RevPi are you using (esp. which eMMC size)?
What image?

NodeRed comes pre-installed in our full image, so I guess it must be sth different if you had to install it by yourself.

Regarding NodeRed, I've installed using the following command:

Code: Select all

bash <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/node-red/linux-installers/master/deb/update-nodejs-and-nodered)

[nicolaiB]

Hi,

why do you want to install NodeRed again? It is already integrated in our buster image. If you don't need the desktop environment I'd suggest to flash use the lite image which is noticable smaller than the normal one.

Nicolai

[thalesmaoa]

This is odd. As I mentioned. I tried to launch NodeRed, but it didn't work at all. No problem so far. After the command, it did installed successfully.

My question was partially answered by your "lite" indication.

I will:

Code: Select all

 sudo apt purge xserver* lightdm* raspberrypi-ui-mods vlc* lxde* chromium* desktop* gnome* gstreamer* gtk* hicolor-icon-theme* lx* mesa*

It will probably clean the system. Do you see any problem with this?

[nicolaiB]

From a first glance this list looks OK. If you want to be sure, I'd recommend to make an image from your running device, so you can flash to original state if something breaks.

Nicolai

[thalesmaoa]

For some reason, the system crashed.
I confirm that NodeRed is installed by default, but the version is too old. Is there any problem to upgrade NodeRed using the command I've mentioned?

[nicolaiB]

No, if there is enough disk space available this should work (haven't tested it though)
