When I boot Mandrake 7.0 it gets to the command line login with the penguin and cycles over and over. I rebooted in linux 3 mode and was able to login. I typed df and saw that my / partition is 100% full. These 2 things I was able to do from the posts I've read - thanks guys!! Now I need to add space to this root partition. I have about 300 megs available in my home drive so I do have the space. I have never used Linux fdisk before and I assume I need to use it now. Any help appreciated.
