Long shot, but check if root can write files. If yes, it probably means |
11 |
your reserved block count is a bit high (default is 5% I believe). The |
12 |
reserved block count is a mechanism that disallows further writes to the |
13 |
filesystem if it gets too full, and only root can keep writing. |

If that's your problem, the reserved block count can be changed with the |
16 |
tune2fs tool. To set it to, say 2%, you would run: |
17 |
|
18 |
tune2fs -m 2 /dev/sda6 |
19 |

I don't know if it's safe to do this while the filesystem is mounted. |
21 |
To play it safe, go to single user mode, umount /home, and only then run |
22 |
the above command. |
