[sf-lug] boot is full

[Michael Paoli]

.Trash-0 - sounds like an ewey GUI kind of thing,
not the kind of thing rm(1) would create.

And at around 41M, that's a sizeable chunk of that about 88M
of your /boot filesystem.

And df will indicate what the mount point of the filesystem is,
e.g.:
$ df -k /boot && sudo umount /boot && df -k /boot && sudo mount /boot
Filesystem     1K-blocks  Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1         233191 23142    197608  11% /boot
Filesystem              1K-blocks   Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/tigger-root    507940 223937    258012  47% /
