I also have a workstation running OpenSuse 13.2, and it has the same problem of rootfs being 100% used. ... I don't know why it chose too little space for rootfs)....
Likely / was provided enough space, but malconfigured processes are wasting and aborted processes have wasted space: 1-/var/log/ likely has some large to gargantuan archives that serve no purpose. It's unlikely you'll ever find a use for its *.xz files. If these are systems resulting from upgrading, /var/log/zypp likely has large ancient history serving no purpose. If systemd is logging to disk it's very likely using a huge amount of space. 2-purge-kernels service is typically not enabled, so you might have a bunch of installed kernels you'll never have use for again. Enable it if it isn't, and zypper rm at least some of any old ones. 3-/var/cache/zypp may still have every rpm ever installed. Most people don't need these. Run zypper clean all and you'll free up significant space immediately. Next round of updates or zypper ref and it will grow, but won't add packages already installed. You may want to configure zypper via YaST2 to not keep packages. 4-could be a lot of stuff in /tmp and /var/tmp left behind from crashes. Nothing in them needs to be preserved across boots, so everything non-current there can be deleted. 5-/ if on btrfs needs attention I'm in no position to help with. I don't use it. 6-core dumps are really big if you have a lot of installed RAM, and usually useless. Find, and delete all found. I'm sure there's some howto somewhere for eradicating more effectively, but these should put a useful dent in the problem. (Those dataset commands you ran to share probably didn't produce expected output due to your freespace shortage.) -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
