Sorry, but i haven't any computer to hand so far :(
My system can't start X sessions due to the full /home partition (not
enough space in my /dev/sda5) and the virtual ttys don't work. Gparted
cannot mount the partition, and clonezilla coudn't check it due to the
existen git metadata, i guess. I found a solution in debian-installer,
keeping tha data of my /home, which allow me to run ash commands
within the target. I still didn't with test-disk tool.
This weekend i will work on the issue concerning to this thead, Svante :)

I shall rectify some points. In summary:
- I couldn't start a Xsession due to the busy space, and the virtual
terminals didn't work.
- Thunar couldn't mount the /home partition during a live session.
- Gparted couldn't resize the partition after reducing the size of the
swap memory, suggesting at the same time to update the version of e2fsck.
- Clonezilla couldn't check /dev/sda5 due to unsupported features:
metadata_csum (i must say that i used a very old version of clonezilla).
- After the restoring the system with debian-installer (keeping the data
of the /home partition, but using it as ext4 and mounting it as /home,
of course,
it's possible to enter into the target and then you can remove whatever
you want.
I already have my computer working again. There is no getting around the
fact that d-i is awesome :)
I wonder whether test-disk would have worked.
Cheers,
Aitor.
