The root of my disk is showing 222 MB and rest others are in GBs. See: 

df -h
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev             14G     0   14G   0% /dev
tmpfs           2.8G  174M  2.6G   7% /run
/dev/sda1        83G   78G  222M 100% /
tmpfs            14G   25M   14G   1% /dev/shm
tmpfs           5.0M  4.0K  5.0M   1% /run/lock
tmpfs            14G     0   14G   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs           2.8G   92K  2.8G   1% /run/user/1000

How can I increase the size of /dev/sda1 while I am still in the system?

You have only one partition which is used by the user / or /dev/sda1

This partition have 78GB used and 222MB free.

The simple solution will be to remove junk files / temporary files from /dev/sda1

Instructions:

Note: As mentioned by @dobey and @sudodus - another easy solution will be:

  • Install additional / bigger disk.
