I hope someone can help me.

I upgraded from Ubuntu 19.04 to 19.10 and then all of a sudden received notification saying that I ran out of space and there was only like 25mb space left. I looked on the "disks" program and there was more than a 100gb free on the drive.

I used Stacer to clean unused files and apps etc and then restarted the computer and now I can't login?

How do I fix this?

df -h output below:

    Please edit your question and add the output of df -h (If you cannot login, use ctrl-alt-f3 to switch to a TTY and login there). – pLumo Oct 23 '19 at 12:53

    Your disk is full. You need to delete some data or move to an external disk. With 864G of data, you should be able to find something ... Then run sudo apt install -f from the TTY. Regarding Stacer.... it seems a nice tool if you know what you're doing. But if you don't, it can lead to serious problems ("cannot login anymore", etc.). Use with caution. – pLumo Oct 23 '19 at 13:24

    Is it normal though because I had plenty of space before upgrading to 19.10? – Firefox264 Oct 23 '19 at 13:28

    100gb should be more than enough, but as we have no output from how it was before it is difficult to tell what has happened – pLumo Oct 23 '19 at 13:30

    Fair enough but how can I easily access the hard drive and move data to another drive? I have a 2TB plugged in there as a backup so if I can move some data there, that will be good. Can I use a live CD? – Firefox264 Oct 23 '19 at 13:39

  • I managed to clear some space but the I noticed on system monitor that I was loosing MBs by the second and please note that this happened after upgrading to 19.10. There was no issues upgrading it completed successfully. – Firefox264 Oct 23 '19 at 23:30
