 error: No space left on device

Where is the problem? It shows I have space on all partitions. It shows that my inodes are also not full. I am not able to install. I have tried sudo apt-get autoremove as well. Thanks a ton

  • 1M on /tmp might not be enough for the installer to run properly. You could use `strace` to find out what device does not have enough space left. – Bart Friederichs Oct 15 '12 at 08:54

As answered by Bart Friederichs in comments,

/tmp was the problem. So, downloaded the installation zip folder and installed it not from /tmp.
