tune2fs -m 0 /dev/something ... but it may not help you. If you were
installing software you were running as root which is allowed to use
the reserved space, so you probably don't have any reserved space left.
Try to find something you can safely delete - maybe in /tmp or /var/log.
Once system is usable, you can uninstall some unneeded packages to give
you more space to work with while you repartition.
