You may have been bitten by  your /var/log, so you will have to delete those 
log archives.

This happened to me on a smaller / partition a long time ago.  What I did then 
(and still do now, out of habit), is, as root, navigate to the 
/etc/logrotate.conf
and edit all entries that say "rotate 4" and change to "rotate 1", change any 
"weekly" to "daily" and change any "monthly" to "weekly".  That should take 
care of it in the future.  If you're not running a server you don't need all 
those logs anyway.
