Indeed. On both machines there are about 95MB left (/ /boot and /Var are on
the same partition).

Yesterday I found this:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=929424

and tried adding `MODULES=dep` to /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/modules

This solved the problem on the laptop, but *not* on the desktop.
The latter has a lot more packages installed... I presume there is a bit less
free space on the partition and maybe this could be the reason (?)...

I will try this next time I go to my sister.

How should I read the output of df -ih to check if inodes have run out?
And what should I do in this case?

Thanks.
