[Wylug-discuss] Buggered up Debian install

I went for what I thought was the easy solution and wiped the disk and
started again. I must have pressed /something/ wrong in the install
because I /thought/ I told the installer to do its automagic thing
with the hard disk, when what it actually did was give me 9gb for /
and a remaining 500gb for /home, where /home is encrypted.
I'd prefer to fix this without going all the way back to the install,
especially as it takes 1/2 a day to set up the crypto partition.
Is there a way to solve this? It's a bit disconcerting when aptitude
spits errors at me for lack of disk space. Especially when I've barely
begun installing some stuff.
Dump of df -h follows, since I think someone will ask for it.
