   I resolved the problem by using gparted to shrink the /home partion.   
   The relinquished space below /home.   
      
   I moved /home down, thn enlarged the / partition.   
      
   It then wouldn't boot. Evenytuallly my new VBF ChatGPT suggested:   
      
   $ sudo apt install --reinstall mint-meta-cinnamon   
      
   That fixed it.
