From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Mounting and sudo apt -f install worked. So does stuff install in /home/apt-cache now? I do want to combine / and /home
My recommendation would be to copy your entire home directory with rsync -a onto another (external) drive, as you anyway don't want to modify your partitions without having a backup. Then boot into a live distribution and open a partition editor, delete the home partition (the data on it will be lost), expand the root partition (/) onto the entire disk. Finally copy the backup back into the home folder using rsync -a
Ok. Does rync -a copy hardlinks
No, only softlinks. See it's man page. AfaIk, rsync -a is usually used for backup.
-H can tho
