Try to first remove 6.2.16-20-pve to free up space in the ESP area - if you do not need this old kernel anymore.

Possibly (not tested) by apt purge proxmox-kernel-6.2...

 

[Dunuin]

I always run apt autoremove after each upgrade so old kernels get removed to not run into this problem, of boot partition running out of space, in the first place.

You need to free up some space on your ESP(s) manually:
