Hi
Thank you for your diagnosis.
What commands do I need to use?
Do I need to delete the partition or it involves more complex commands?
Is this a common problem? Shouldn't there be a way to fix it via the gui?
Thank You

It is fairly common, but not usually caused by the ReadyNAS application itself - it is more commonly caused by apps. The Antivirus software is no longer supported on the RN100 series, but one possibility is that AV files were somehow left behind.
The fix requires systematically searching for files/folders that aren't normally there (or in some cases are much larger than they should be). Once you sort out what those files/folders are, then the needed action is usually pretty clear (deleting or truncating them, or moving them to the data volume).
If you leave things as they are, the NAS will at some point fail to boot, so you would need a factory default. Off-loading your data should be a high priority - but obviously not using the built-in backup jobs, since their logging seems to have resulted in the OS partition reaching a critical point.
