My first thought would be to check /var/log and /var/mail (unless they're
out in /usr). Move/remove things until you get back to a reasonable
state. This reminds me of a recent thread. :)

My rule of thumb partitions for a basic, 1disk system:

 /     50-100MB
 swap  RAM x 2
 /usr  Remaining space
 (/tmp and /var should be softlinks to /usr/var and /usr/tmp)
