Ookay, so this morning I got message I've only 300 mb free space on root filesystem.So I cleaned everything I could. Now there are 5.2GB available.

But, (i'm novice user) I see that I might have made a mistake when installing Ubuntu. Then i made 40GB space for "/" and 200GB for '/home'. Seems that the 200GB are not used, and the files in '/home' are using root's space. And stuff like vscode and gimpp are using root's space. I've attach photo of 'df -T' output. How do I fix this..? terminal:$ df -T

  • It happens to a lot of folks. Does this answer your question? [How to resize partitions?](https://askubuntu.com/questions/126153/how-to-resize-partitions). – user535733 Sep 01 '22 at 03:53
  • It's helpful; I started gparted, but it doesn't let me to resize the partition. I will try with 'Ubuntu installation' to see what happens... – VeritLibert Sep 01 '22 at 04:01
  • If the application does not let you resize the partition, then *there is a reason!*. You must carefully read both the instructions and your output to learn the reason and thereby avoid breaking your system and losing your data. Re-partitioning is inherently risky -- patience and preparation are the keys to success. – user535733 Sep 01 '22 at 04:06

Right, so basically from 'Ubuntu live installation' i deleted the swap partition, deleted the unused '/home'. Then, it didn't let me resize, so I restarted and went into installed Ubuntu and from gparted extended '/' directory and made swap.It works.
