Updating Linux Lite USB Perstince

[member=10844]delpap[/member], that error message indicates that your device's run out of space and that's why the update process can't complete. Are you running Linux Lite from a USB in persistent mode? If so, keep in mind that updating/upgrading the kernel isn't exactly an easy procedure, since when running Linux in persistent mode, every single piece of data's been written into files and not directly in the physical device, those files are rootfs to store programs and libraries and if you have home persistent enabled too there's also a homefs file as well where your personal data i.e downloads, music, pictures are being stored along with any customizations and software settings, both files are mounted on boot on RAM , since the kernel needs to be written into the device and it's not, it won't hold unless you remaster the image. So, you might want to avoid updating the kernel, for that open synaptic, search for your kernel, select it then click on package and from the drop down menu choose lock version this way you'll prevent the kernel from updating/upgrading while the rest of the system  will without any issues. I too run a few distros in persistent mode from a couple of USBs in a laptop which has no HDD and that's been my experience; I don't update/upgrade the kernel thus avoiding having this kind of issue and so far none of the systems has given me any issues when updating/upgrading..

Hope this helps!
