After a couple years of regular upgrades, my system has a long list of old files, starting with Linux-Libre 3.13.0-46-lowlatency and ending with ... 103-lowlatency, but after trying the usual suggested commands, apt-get clean, apt-get autoclean & apt-get autoremove, the list that appears in grub remains the same, the root disk is still full, and the upgrade to Linux-Libre 3.13.0-105-lowlatency is broken.

Where are all these Linux-Libre 3.13.0-???-lowlatency files stored ?
What is the safe way of removing them ?

I will also consider the posibility of boot into a LiveDvd or LiveUSB and resize home and root partitions in order to give a little more space to root and less to home.

You can use Gparted for this.

But you should be cautious and backup just in case of (unpremeditated) data loss.

Some times even to purge I have needed a little extra space i am not sure why.
