> Hey, I think the error likely means your SD card or external hard drive is out of space. You can SSH into your Umbrel and check disk usage with df -h to see which partition is full. If it’s the SD card, try deleting old logs (sudo rm -rf ~/umbrel/logs/\*) or unused Docker data (docker system prune -a). If the hard drive is full, you can remove unused Docker volumes (docker volume prune) or large unnecessary files. Once you’ve freed up space, try restarting the update process.

I’m trying to clear out space just in case it’s a SSD space issue and when trying to clear the unused Docker data (docker system prune -a), I get the following:

permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Head “http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/\_ping”: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied
