I tried to remove some VM i thought it will do something to help but it didn’t change anything , i tried to do “sudo clean packages” in dom0 but it didn’t do anything.

What i’m suppose to do ? My disk have 256 GB space and i’m using half of that space it shouldn’t happen so why i have this issue ?

You must have changed default settings (kernel latest perhaps), you’ve run out of space on boot partition. Delete old/unused kernels

Qubes 4.3rc1: trouble with kernels at grub

First of all, up to the point answer on how to solve the issue. You could list the installed kernels with sudo rpm -qa kernel\* | sort -V and remove the old ones or problematic ones with sudo dnf remove BAD_KERNEL. Regenerating grub menu entries should be automatic. But in case needed: grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg (on legacy boot systems, not EFI). Second of all, of course, you should not need to do the above manually. The rpmspec should specify that the new kernels are replacing th…

Thanks it worked and you probably right i think i changed the default settings but even if i did that this shouldn’t happen right ?

It is rare, I’ve never personally experienced it on my many installations. But boot partition only has 1GB I think. If you don’t change much of the default settings for kernel (latest, developer, testing etc) I doubt you’ll experience it again
