Hello everyone
I'm a newbie with Arch Linux
When i tried to update with
sudo pacman -Syu
I getting the following error
error: Partition /boot too full: 5322 blocks needed, 85 blocks free
error: not enough free disk space
error: failed to commit transaction (not enough free disk space)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
I'm on a dual boot Windows 10 Arch linux on two separate drive
the /boot is located in my Windows drive
Thanks a lot for your response

The error is pretty clear. What's the question?

Hello Scimmia
Thanks you for your response
I don't know how to allocate more space for the partition of /boot
I've tried using gparted but even as root i cannot do it
How can i allocate more place for the partition of /boot ?
It's strange because when i do :
sudo pacman -S
on any package, it work
Thanks

Hi
I found the solution, the problem seems to come from package intel-ucode, i removed it, and now it's working

That's not a very good solution.
du -hs /boot/*

Hello seth
The problem is i don't have space to install or update it (in the /boot partition)
Do i need to allocate more space to the partition ? And if yes How ?

1st by checking whether there's some space wasted for really useless stuff.
2nd by probably booting from a different partition - growing teh boot partition, which is likely at the head of the drive, is gonna be a complete PITA (w/ inherent risk of data loss) because you'd have to move at least the adjacent partition.
Next to the du, post
lsblk -f

Thank you seth for your help now it's working

None of what seth suggested would inherently fix anything but just be diagnostics, what did you end up doing?
