Problem description:
I'm trying a system update from xbian-config, but I get an error message:

Code:
E: Write error - write (28: No space left on device)

My SD card is:

Code:

Maybe, I can try a new installation from scratch, lossing my configuration, but, are there another way to do it? Any idea?

Thank you.
You can remove some btrfs snapshots.
Thank you. Finally, I did a installation from scratch. It took me hours, but I have a clean system now, I think.

I will change to solved this thread. If can I ask, what are btrfs snapshots? Are the same snapshots at the XBMC backup settings?
No they are moment in time backups, so you can rollback to a working version of xbian if something goes wrong. They are taken each time your system updates, there is a mechanism that keeps it from filling your system but that doesn't help when your system is full from other things.
