I doubt this is the case, the internal storage is quite big. Try to find out where the space is taken up. You can do this with the du command for example. Or maybe your file system hasn't been resized properly and you don't even have the full storage available from the beginning? You could check this with "df -h".
Symptoms were:
Commenced updating via the Settings menu. I was warned I had approx. 750 MB of available space remaining. Total size of updates was 800mb+. I walked away from the device. Screen went black. Device got hot. Touchscreen became unresponsive. Blue light on.
Took battery out. Restarted. Got stuck in infinite passcode entry loop (a problem I encountered several months back on a previous Beta build).
Removed battery. Back to life. Now says zero bytes free space!
If I find my breakout cable, I could connect some peripherals and find my way around the OS. I'm new to Manjaro but have some Linux experience with desktop versions of Ubuntu.
