I'm running Debian Buster and ran the usual check for updates etc. commands

When I did the system update I hit this error

update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.19.0-22-amd64
pigz: abort: write error on <stdout> (No space left on device)
E: mkinitramfs failure cpio 141 pigz 28
update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-4.19.0-22-amd64 with 1.
dpkg: error processing package initramfs-tools (--configure):
 installed initramfs-tools package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 initramfs-tools
needrestart is being skipped since dpkg has failed
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

so it looks like I'm running out of space and it could be the linux image(s) I have taking up space? Is that correct?

What is the best way to remove some of the old ones safely?

Or am is mis-reading this?
