Hey there
I've been using Ubuntu for over 10 years and the upgrade to 17.04 seems to have broken my system worse than any other. I did a fresh install of 16.10 but when I tried to upgrade to 17.04 today I get stuck. Whatever dpkg or apt command I try to use, I get an error message saying no space left on device, even though there's loads.
root@r-K501:/boot# dpkg --configure --pending
Setting up imagemagick-6-common (8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-3ubuntu1) ...
dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:

the other error message I get is
# apt-get autoremove
Reading package lists... Error!
E: Problem renaming the file /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin.XRSWCJ to /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin - rename (28: No space left on device)
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
E: The package cache file is corrupted
My only guess as to what is going wrong is that it might be to do with using the brtfs filesystem. I've seen some suggestions about moving /boot but that won't work as my system is encrypted.
any help gratefully received.
thanks!
