I have installed Ubuntu 15.10, but i assigned only 4 GB to the /home partition. Now I figured that it's so small because Ubuntu saves files on home! Can i change it inside Ubuntu with some program or something else? I mean to get space from /root and move it to /home?(sorry if my English are bad! :) )

You can use gparted and install it via terminal(Ctrl+Alt+T)

sudo apt-get install gparted

Via using this you can resize partitions as per your needs.

Here is a youtube video for this

4Gb can be more than enough. Options:

  • symlink the directories in /home/$USER/ to a another partition.
  • edit .config/users-dirs.dirs to point the directories to another partition.

Otherwise you can also resize your partition. Boot from a live dvd or from a gparted live dvd and use gparted to resize your partition: make 1 smaller, add it to /home/. You need a live session because you can not alter partitions that are in use.
