    I would first check the lost+found folder within the boot folder. Normally that folder is empty.

    You could use WinSCP for to do the check and to see what all is inside of lost+found, then could copy to your PC and/or delete to free up space.

    WinSCP is freeware and use SSH with the same credentials as PuTTY.

    Probably you have a lot of unused kernels.

    Please show us the output of the following command:
    Code:
    ls -la /boot

    yes, seems /boot is almost full. See if you can remove one or more old kernels.
