Running OpenSUSE 13.2 64, I was updating my system using zypper refresh/update. Update eventually hung because it ran out of space, so I aborted the process. A system reboot later my desktop looks wonky, so I thought it was because the fglrx drivers were not properly installed, so I went by the guide here (zypper command line section.)
Added ‘radeon.modeset=0 blacklist=radeon 3’ to the boot options and F10’d to boot. System started to boot up, however it hung during boot. I hit ctrl+alt+1 to get to a console, logged in as root, and executed the mkinitrd command to continue following the guide.
Next time I reboot, I get ‘no space left on device’ messages from system-update, and then access to the console. When I log in as root, tab completion does not function ‘not enough space in /tmp.’
As you can tell, I don’t really know what I’m doing at this point, and I’d appreciate any help to solve this issue. Here are two capture of the console running dh & dh -i:
Snapper snapshots is eating space. Reduce the usage. or turn it off if you don’t use it anyway. 22 gig is too small for snapper need at minimum 40 gig for root.
I recommend turn it off or removing it. There is a snapper mod in Yast and there are command line options
Is it common for btrfs filesystem show to report using 100% of the partition? I’m referring to that last line. I’ve deleted many of the snapper entries and removed the snapper-zypp-plugin.

Never reboot in these circumstances. First solve the problem, then
finish the update, then you may reboot.
