I cheated; I remembered that he posted them last year. I think it's possible that you, Charles, are still running wheezy, which is probably why you're getting away with such a small root partition. If booting into single user mode allows you to umount /usr, then it would be possible to migrate your root to /dev/sda6, but you don't give me the impression that you'd be confident enough to do that. If you're running a 3.2 kernel, just don't try to upgrade to 3.16; the .deb file is 50% bigger. I don't know what you've got in the partitions we don't see, but judging by your use of /home, you've got room to repartition with two at-least-32GB root partitions so that you can in future install/ upgrade a new Debian in one without touching the old one in the other. Cheers, David.
