Just before this incident, I was doing things on my VMs and download a iso via torrent.Then a message pop up and was saying :not enough space on device /home/aaa/Downloads/name_of_torrent
And then ,I tried to delete some things and I was pretty sure my partition still had over 30GB so I decided to restart my system to see what will happen.
Whenever I enter my password and hit enter it goes just black and come back to the login screen.
Thank you for your time.
Login to level 3 and start Yast
Picasa Web Albums - caf4926 - YaST level3
Then do this in principle, but you have navigate with the keyboard
Clear Temp Files at Boot
If you can’t do this, get back to us
Well it did work but after a few hours, It stills go back to the same problem and I tried to do it again but same results…Help XD
Can you please clarify if this problem is with a VM or the host OS.
We are slightly in the dark with the info you have provided

Sounds like you are downloading .iso in a VM

Log in text mode (level 3) and type:
df -h
That will show which partitions are full. If that is the case, create space - use midnight commander
(mc). Find out what is filling the space.

Well I didn’t download a .iso in my VM, it was on my Host machine . My VMs was full files but I deleted them.
But is it a 11.2 VM that you can’t login to?
And what is the host, does that have a problem?
The VM is XP , you don’t need to care about that.My host is openSUSE 11.2 which is the one who has the problem.
Ok please show
df -h

Use any of these to determine where has gone the disk space - preferably as root:
kdirstat
baobab
filelight
df

Results of df -l :

We said “df -h” not “df -l” ie, Hotel, not Lima.
Anyway, disk is full. Ok, now do:
du -hcs /*
it will take a long time, then tell you the sizes of each directory. With that you can determine
which is much bigger than it should. cd to it, and do:
du -hcs *
and so on till you discover the culprit files. Have a look at them to find out which program is
writing them.
Or use “midnight commander” (ie, run “mc”) for the whole process. Menu “command”, “show directory
sIzes” will calculate the size of all the shown directories in the active panel. Navigate and repeat
till you find the culprit. “F3” open the files to have a look. Mark and delete as needed.
Or you could use one of the GUI programs I suggested, but as you don’t have free space to install
anything, stick to text mode.

You could also boot from a live CD and inspect, move and delete from there, using GUI tools if you like.
Also, from that live CD, you may want to have a look in /tmp, did it fill up again?
