When I tried to download a 10MB file to my account, the download stopped with an error message saying no more space left. So, I deleted the partially downloaded file. Then, I executed
telinit 1 to bring down the system to init level 1. I dismounted the home partition and executed
fsck.reiserfs --rebuild-tree which ended up with the following error messages:

At this moment, my only option seems to be completely re-formating the home partition to lose all its data in order to gain its space back. I wondered if anyone out here has some solution for me to fix this partition before I proceed to format this home partition. I have already made an image file from this partition right after the above error messages and this image file as well as the home partition no longer want to mount.
Before proceeding to re-format the home partition, I thought of resizing this partition and try the above attempt again to see if I will be able to regain its contents. Anyone?
