My root is at 100%...

Hi, this is my situation...my root is all used up. I have Ubuntu 10.10. When I originally installed it I did it as a test station and wasn't thinking about needing it in the future...

Here is my result of df command...

Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/loop0            16876388  15866444    152652 100% /

/dev/sda3            975951868  61753540 914198328   7% /host

As you can see my root which is mounted on /dev/loop0 is at 100%.

I have a lot of space on /dev/sda3. Is there any way I can fix this without reinstalling my system?

I have 2 - 1tb drives.../dev/sda1 is Windows 7.../dev/sdb1 is Ubuntu...with a 20GB root loop...

Somehow it looks as if my LVM2 is not being used. It is HPFS/NTFS partition...

Can I grow / at all or extend it over the sda3?

Thanks,

Check out gparted, I don't think it comes with the base install so you'll probably need to install it.
Needs to be ran under sudo

Once you have it up and running, check this out for a step by step how to.
