There is no guide, and generally I don't recommend folks with no linux experience to attempt it. Paid support is a better path if you want to preserve your data, the factory reset is better if you don't care about that.
Basically you need to manually mount the OS partition, and, sort out where the space is going (the OS partition usually is ~20% full, not over 80%). Then you have to clean out files that don't belong there.

Your root volume is filled by a 2.5GB ReadyTiVo folder.
Is you TiVo archive library on your NAS huge?- YashiiOct 24, 2017Aspirant
It is probable that it is. It is ok to delete it if that might help solve the problem.
How can I avoid it being at Root?

It's a weird situation where TiVo kept claiming to have one more recording, but it would never send the info when we requested it. So we kept retrying forever.
This is fixed with a new ReadyTiVO build, which is already installed on your box. It'll also be included in 6.9.1.Please reboot your NAS.
