OH NO! Says root partition / is full but it's not! I don't get it

[Michael Sierchio]

You're mistaken. ;-)  495736 / 507630, with some margin for free
space, means you're full.

Boot in single user mode.
for each mount point ( /tmp /usr /var )
chflags -R noschg /<mount point>
rm -rf /<mount point>/*

You probably have a lot of hidden files covered by the mounted filesystems.
