Triaged to Invalid.  Not really a bug.  This is expected behavior.  When
a filesystem gets full, the system stops working. A warning system
wouldn't work because normally you run out of hard disk space right in
the middle of a process.  When the process can't complete (due to lack
of space), the system won't execute additional commands.  Hence you
couldn't log into a desktop because of lack of space.  The system
reserves some memory (5%) so that it can continue in limp-along mode.
So you can log into rescue mode and start freeing up space.
