Where is '/tmp' and '/var'? On '/' which is '/dev/sda1'? If this is the case, your root partition is way too small. You might just have a boat load of temporary and log files. Also, package managers take up a bunch of space so you should check there as well. Consider also that when a distro claims "Minimum of X GB of Disk Space to install" that is wishful thinking in the real world. You really need to set aside at least 2X GB for any additional packages, logs, and temp files. -Ed
