Boot into Failsafe mode from lilo.
type 'mc'
Using the file Find function from the commands menu, enter *.iso in the
 Filename field, remove the x (checkmark) from the Case Sensitive field
and hit OK.

You'll find 'em. Highlight a file called <something>.iso in the results
panel and hit enter. you will be taken to the directory which contains
that file.

select the file by moving your cursor to it and hit the F8 key to delete it.

Easy eh, now learn to use mc too.

To reboot your machine once you have regained the space, type 'reboot'
and tap your enter key.

I hope you are making notes here :-)

Cheers

John
