I'm editing a document in vi, and when I try to save it, it says: E514: write error (file system full?) What's going on if I know the file system isn't anywhere near full? The machine is running Tomcat on Red Hat, and it's under load at the moment. Thanks...

PCLOS: Boot error: file system type is ext2fs; partition is 0x83, and error 13

location: linuxquestions.com - date: September 22, 2008
I'm trying to complete the installation of PCLOS 2007 on a multiboot tower machine in which Grub is located in the Mandriva 2008.1 partition; windows is not installed. So, when I installed PCLOS, I chose to install its Grub in its own partition (hd2,5 or hdd6 [hdb is the CD-DVD drive]) with a chainload entry for it in Mandriva's menu.lst. During the installation, I reformatted that partition ext3. On trying to boot, I get this error: Error: root (hd2,5) file system type is ext2fs; partition is 0x83 error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format Google shows the error 13 message to mean the kernel image being loaded isn't recognized as Multiboot or one of the supported native formats, including Linux. However, the kernel is 2.6.18.8.tex5, exactly the same as the kernel in the successful PCLOS installation in my laptop. Comparing the two installations, I noticed there was no /boot/grub/menu.lst file in the tower, but there was one in the laptop; I wrote up the same menu.l

Cannot write: Readonly file system (but rw in fstab)

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: July 22, 2008
My /etc/fstab: This is not logical. My Ubuntu 6.10 server went like this some days ago, and now I cannot write to /dev/sda1 on mounted on/media2 (last line). This problem has come all of a sudden. Any suggestions? /etc/mtab is all the same if you want to know. I can though "fix" this by running "mount -a", and sda1 then becomes writeable..(why?)

Root File System Full /var/log/upstart/lightdm.log is 9.8 gb

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: May 23, 2013
When I booted this morning I got a Root File System Full notice and after snooping around I found that my /var/log/upstart/lightdm.log was 9.8 gb, which I suspect is the cause. Can I just delete this file? I think I should try to find out why it is so large, too. I have no idea how to do this. Thanks in advance for the help. I am running 12.04 with all updates installed.

File system NOT clean error

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: January 26, 2012
Hi everyone, I have a dual boot laptop running Windows 7 and Ubuntu 11.10. The internal hard disk has 3 main partitions: 1 for Windows, 1 for Linux and 1 that I call New Volume for files I transfer between the two operating systems (mostly music and images). I also have a 1TB USB drive attached. I installed a bunch of updates to Ubuntu 11.10 yesterday and this morning I can't write to my USB drive or to partition used for storing/swapping files; both mount as read only. In an effort to sort the problem I used Disk Utility to unmount the New Volume partition and checking the file system I get a message saying "file system NOT clean". Clicking the check and repair file system button again just crashes Disk Utility and I have no idea what to do to rectify the situation. Can anyone help? I should add: I can read and write as normal when running Windows.
