Which filesystem got full? A full root i.e. / filesystem can do all sorts of nasty things... It'd surely already be spitting all kinds of errors, too, you might not even be able to login.
I don't know about disk corruption, though. It's more of a situation where disk space is needed to do things and disk space is not available, causing funny errors when you try to do things like logins.
I suppose, if people couldn't login, he may have had to hard-power-off the system.
