        Ya. Is there another user on your machine?

          Stupid question, nm. Do the same under /usr.

            just root.

            /home is a big partition though.

            So it must be the /usr?

                  I usually give / like 50GB for a workstation install. If I can’t, I create a few separate volumes like /var/log and /var. That way if one fills up it won’t affect everything else.

                  I don’t think you’re going to be able to take much out of /usr.

                    but I can reduce /home easily. nothing much is really there as I changed my user folders to links to my nextcloud folder that resides on the 4TB SATA drive.

                          Not sure how to resolve it though. /home is part of a LVM volume.

                          While root is just an ext4 partition.

                            I thought anything under /dev/mapper/ is using LVM?

                              Ya looks like / is using LVM. You would have to shrink your /home a bit and then grow your / volume.

                                How did you install this? Every time I’ve installed it / gets 50GB and /home takes the rest.

                                  Oh this is a desktop. If this was a server I'd ask what it's doing and check for lots of or large log files.

                                  It's probably full of just regular software packages.

                                  Shrink /home by 50G and give it to root. On a workstation it doesn't make sense to give root 10G. I don't know why tha'ts default. I thought the default was 15 GiB? But still, it's a workstation, installing software will go to root and fill that shit up fast.

                                  It's LVM right? If so it's easy to fix.

                                  Here's mine:

                                  0_1518016400183_8ab5e173-a5db-45e4-8027-809649227bef-image.png

                                  According to above, had mine only been 10G i'd be out of room too.

                                    I could have sworn it's 15 GiB by default on Fedora Workstation... which is still too low on a desktop.

                                      You can do it in Cockpit so easily:

                                      /home: shrink it
                                      0_1518016571513_05f41212-9b35-435f-bcf5-742dd56b0093-image.png

                                      Then add it to your / partition

                                        I do not recall changing this. I would assume that I click custom and then let it create it in the advanced screen.

                                        I agree with you and @Tim_G that this seems odd form my normal experiences.

                                          I cannot unmount /home because it is busy. even after a reboot and not logging in.

                                            You will have to use a live bootable OS to unmount /home.
