If your / filesystem is full, you're going to have problems with far
more than PostgreSQL. You need to adjust your partitions while you can
still use the system, because you can expect a crash soon.
As for the initdb, the answer is in the error message ... the script is
trying to create files in /tmp/ as prep work, and there isn't any space.
