now it says
Code:
unable to open/create status database lockfile: No space left on device
and I managed to access the 'Log" option of the "Applications Manager" after a restart.. it says

Code:
Hildon-application-manager 2.2 52.2
write: Broken pipe
write: Broken pipe
apt-worker exited
apt-worker: can't turncate lock/var/libhildon-application-manager/apt-worker-lock:No space left on device
read: bad file descriptor
apt-worker is not runnig
how can I free disk space in a situation like this?

has anyone faced this situation before?
