Installed Gentoo Linux with KDE. Worked on it for some days without any
problem. The disk became full (now deleted some files downloaded to my
documents to get 1.5Gb free space). Now i can't login to Gentoo. The
login screen appears when username and password is entered and press
enter It never logins. just reappears.
Pressed Ctrl+Alt+F1 and logedin as root
no commands are accessible, not even 'ls'
Help needed.
Choice 1) At startup edit your booting line and include as a kernel
parameter the word 'single'. That may be of some help to get a ready
prompt. If you're not using GRUB (or if you've configured advanced
security in GRUB), then you're on your own I guess. Lilo also allows to
edit the kernel command line, I guess.
Choice 2) If you've configured rc system to be interactive, then press
'I' when booting and start _only_ extremely necessary services. That
would also guarantee some ready prompt.
Choice 3) Use a LiveCD and if you _really_ need to execute anything into
your installation then do it in a chroot.
Whatever your choice is, you can try the following to free up some space
in your root directory:
1) Delete files under /usr/portage/distfiles.
2) `make clean' under /usr/src/*.
3) Delete /usr/{share/{doc,man},src/*/Documentation} directories. Ok,
this is desperate, but you can delete all that extremely useful
documentation. If you can, first copy those dirs to some other media
like SD or Flash to be able to recover it later.
Those items should have been given you enough space to be able to login
normally (text based, please!).
Now you have to see what to do to free up some more space (uninstall
things or something) or give your root partition a breathe and increase
it's size (you can use the tools of your FS to grow the fs: resize2fs,
xfs_growfs, etc.).

Re: [gentoo-user] {OT} Computers and mental/emotional health
Have sex! That's the first thing you can do to keep your mind out of madness. Really, look at the benefits of having sex and you'll see it's a complete excercise for body, obviously you have to excercise your social skills and has some really cool consecuences on your body, methabolism, etc. (just google it). You can have as much as you want (or can, hehe) and it'll never be bad (just use condoms, and try avoiding weird stuff...). -- Diego Augusto Molina diegoaugustomol...@gmail.com ES: Por favor, evite adjuntar documentos de Microsoft Office.
