/: write failed, filesystem is full

Hello,
I have a problem with the filesystem. I am always getting those "/: write failed, filesystem is full" errors. If I have a look on df the root has 109% Capacity. How could that be?
I had a file in /root with 3.3G that I have now deleted but with no success. The df output is as before. I am using Raid1(Mirror) with two 80Gig ST380011A/3.04 HDs.

df -h
Filesystem    Size   Used  Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ar0s1a   4.9G   4.9G -400.7M   109%    /
devfs         1.0K   1.0K     0B   100%    /dev
/dev/ar0s1d    21G   2.5G    16G    13%    /usr
/dev/ar0s1e   3.9G   555M   3.1G    15%    /var
/dev/ar0s1f    43G   885M    39G     2%    /www



my disk usage:
 du -hd1
1.5K    ./dev
2.5G    ./usr
555M    ./var
885M    ./www
2.4M    ./stand
1.5M    ./etc
2.0K    ./cdrom
2.0K    ./dist
7.3M    ./bin
 18M    ./boot
2.0K    ./mnt
2.0K    ./proc
 18M    ./root
 21M    ./sbin
 24K    ./tmp
 76K    ./cgb
4.0G    .

The du output does not agree with the df output. Where are the 4.9Gig of / ?
What can I do? Somebody had this problem before? 

Thanks,
Joachim
