File system full, won't complete boot
Hello,

I have a very old hp rp2450 running 11i2 that I had to power off. When turning it back on it hangs with the following message. Would booting into SUM get me any further? I've never used SUM, so I'm asking before I go down that rabbit hole.

Thanks for the help.

I think you have no other choice than to go and boot in single user or in maintenance (LVM) mode (better) what does this lvol contain?
