At my two eopkg upgrade, I obtained the following errors:
[✓] Syncing filesystems success
[✓] Updating dynamic library cache success
[✗] Updating clr-boot-manager failed
A copy of the command output follows:

Here are the kernels
sudo clr-boot-manager list-kernels
com.solus-project.current.6.4.11-251
* com.solus-project.current.6.3.12-241
com.solus-project.lts.5.15.127-212
I have already removed two kernels using
clr-boot-manager remove ...
command, then
Updating clr-boot-manager update
but it still have no space to update/switch to new kernel: this is what I expect.
Why?
My EFI boot partition is 200Mb, on a 2012 macbook pro with Mac OS X and solus. The multiboot uses rEFIt.
Previously, ubuntu 18.04 LTS desktop was installed. I installed solus on it without apparent trouble.
It is ok, it works but with the drawback mentioned above.
A strange thing is the multiplication of entries in rEFIt interface (I still have ubuntu, I have several grub mentioned, and I have no idea how to remove entries, or even if it is needed and can explain the impossibility to update kernel). I don't know exactly how the boot process works.
Note: this macbook was bought already modified and has a 256 GB ssd drive (sdb) and a 512 GB hard drive (sda, in place of the DVD).
Part of fdisk -l output:

Solus is on sdb4, and seems to be recognized as Microsoft Data (strange, isn't it ?).
Would someone guess a solution to update kernel normally, please?
I am not confident in resizing EFI 🙂 (as mentioned in other similar topics)
Thank you in advance.
