Something is using too much space on your root partition. Do you have a virtualization program installed, e.g. Virtual Machine Manager, Virtualbox, etc.? Can you post the output of sudo du -hxd1 / ?

Flushed your logs? https://www.linuxuprising.com/2019/10/how-to-clean-up-systemd-journal-logs.html

Also use

du 

to figure out what’s taking up all that space on /

What do you mean by that?


You /var is still quite large. Any VMs or databases there? Also, /opt and /root have 3GB of stuff, is that stuff you need?

Take a look at the output of the following commands

sudo du -shxc /*

sudo du -a / | sort -n -r | head -n 30

sudo du -a /var/ | sort -n -r | head -n 20

Use live session, or set up root password, reboot, Alt+Ctrl+F3, login as root and resize the LVs:

sudo umount /dev/mapper/fedora-home
sudo lvreduce -r -L -30G /dev/mapper/fedora-home
sudo lvextend -r -l +100%FREE /dev/mapper/fedora-root
sudo mount -a

@perryt, you have successfully extended the root LV.
It looks like you are using the emergency/rescue/recovery mode, so you can safely ignore the last command failing.

@florian, that’s true in general, but in this case with the home LV unmounted, starting a graphical session is problematic.
