The command should have been: lsblk -f /dev/sda or in addition, df / What you described in your OP is a typical symptom of lack of adequate freespace on the / filesystem, not a problem having to do with partitioning. You may be in need of running apt autoremove and/or apt clean to free the / filesystem of unneeded and obsolete files. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.
