Thanks mdgm so much for your help! Everything is fine again. I had to reenable FTP and redo the share settings for that. And also reupload the SSH plugin. But that was pretty much it!

It seems your new setting for the Crashplan cache folder didn't stick. I found this in the config file, which seems to be the default location:
But if that was [only] a couple of hundred megs, then I guess the real problem was whatever was in tmp, right?
I have definitely learned a valuable lesson here. So I'm keen in making sure I don't run into this problem again in the future. Therefore, I have a couple of questions that I hope you can help me with:
1.
The 2.5GB in tmp, what did it consist of mainly? What was the main culprit? Something I've installed? Or can this happen with just standard everything?
2.
Can I delete anything in tmp at anytime? I mean if it allows itself to be deleted that is and is not locked.
3.
Is it possible to schedule some form of routine clean-up of tmp? Or should I manually set a reminder for myself to go in and do some house cleaning now and then?
4.
One final question, which I guess I already know the answer to, but I might as well ask. Is it possible to expand the OS partition or does that require some custom firmware or something? THAT I'm not getting into...!
