/ is the root partition.  You seem to have no separate /boot partition.

You're only in a small amount of trouble.  The best option is to
download a rescue CD .iso(1) and, having booted from that, resize your
partitions to create some more space on / (root).  It might take a fair
bit of juggling depending on how the partitions are laid out(3).

Even though it's comparatively safe to do this(2), I strongly recommend
that you back up any important data before attempting any resizing.

(1)  I used one from http://www.sysresccd.org which has various options
for partition manipulation.

(2)  I had to perform the same task yesterday.  It was the first time
I'd done it, and everything went smoothly.

(3)  I had to decrease the size of /home, move /swap, shrink the LV that
they were on, then increase the size of /.  A tense three hours ensued,
but all went well.
