Hey, Michael
As I installed my Pop_OS! a year or so ago, I have no idea how to do this. This came with the time, without having me something to do with it.
Is there some article you can recommend me to follow, to get this fixed? I’m sorry, I’m at max intermediate Linux user
The first option is switching to xz compression of the initramfs, if this is not already done. Edit /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf and change the COMPRESS value to xz, and then run update-initramfs -c -k all. On the system I’m on at the moment with this option set, the EFI partition is only consuming ~320 MB of space with only Pop!_OS and its recovery partition.
If the system is not encrypted, you can shrink the root partition, move it to the right, and then grow the EFI partition. Or you can reinstall with the latest ISO. Pop!_OS currently requires at minimum a 1 GB EFI partition.
You’ll need to make room on the EFI partition mounted at
/boot/efi
. May want to think about making a larger EFI partition.Hey, Michael As I installed my Pop_OS! a year or so ago, I have no idea how to do this. This came with the time, without having me something to do with it.
