Installed Pixel Desktop environment, now RetroPie won't boot

[Sinistar83]

When i installed Pixel via the Retropie 4.0 setup script (I wanted to use it so the RP would also have a web browser) it installed OK, but now after reboot, the Retropie splash screen loads then goes to a black screen

-bash: /home/pi .profile: No space left on device
pi@retropie:~$ _

And also the keyboard is not responsive so it won't let me type anything at the command prompt.

I'm not sure if the SD card got corrupt but when I use windows to get to \RETROPIE it has all the directories but the folders are empty now.

Any suggestions, or do I need to reformat and start over?

Thanks.

You ran out of disk space. Remove some files / roms over the network and it may be ok again.

@BuZz Thanks for the reply.
What's the another way to remove some ROMs over the network? I usually use the Windows explorer \\RETROPIE\roms but it says that folder is empty.

@Sinistar83 Did you check the documentation ? https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Transferring-Roms / https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/ssh

@BuZz Thanks, yep I was using the Samba-Shares option, but it was weird, initially none of the folders or files under roms, bios, or configs were showing.
After leaving it up for several hours then coming back and trying again, it let me get into the roms folder, so I deleted a few Dreamcast roms, and it's working now. very odd.
