Resolution
Delete unwanted kernel images
FIRST MUST TAKE VM SNAPSHOT
Remove kernel images one by one using the following apt-get command or apt command:
NOTE only remove older kernels do not remove the current kernel
To check current kernel
# uname -r
5.10.0-33-amd64
To get a list
# dpkg --list | egrep -i --color 'linux-image|linux-headers'
Example replace based on what is returned
# apt-get --purge remove linux-image-5.10.0-20-amd64
# apt-get --purge remove linux-image-5.10.0-32-amd64
Additional Information
If third party utilities have been installed you may need to remove them before removing older kernels
# apt-get --purge remove linux-image-5.10.0-32-amd64

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
