Answer 1

I configured the local environment docker to reuse the docker daemon inside the minikube instance.

There were many docker images listed when I used docker images command

Removed all the docker images using docker rmi -f imageName

After removing all the docker images, I was able to get some space and the Debian issue is resolved

Answer 2

Show us your df -kh. Also check the space left where your docker installation has gone. The drive where your docker is installed. Also check if your volume is heavy. If so you can switch your docker volume data to another data root by setting data-root flag in daemon.json and perform systemctl reload daemon.
