Tell us excactly what Partition tells you.
If your drive is full, it could be that some programs give errors,
because they are not able to write to /tmp
Delete everything in /tmp as normal user

Tell us excactly what Partition tells you, because I understood
something else in your previous post.

Tell us excactly what Partition tells you. When you make a new partition
and /work does not exist, Yast will make it for you.
So please tell us what Partitioner in Yast tells you. If you do not
understand what I mean, run 'lvmdiskscan' as root and give us the
outcome.
Mine e.g. gives (lines longer then standard):
root@penne # lvmdiskscan
lvmdiskscan -- reading all disks / partitions (this may take a while...)
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hdc [ 3.93 GB] free whole disk
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hda1 [ 152.66 GB] Primary LINUX native partition [0x83]
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hdb1 [ 101.94 MB] Primary LINUX swap partition [0x82]
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hdb2 [ 101.97 MB] Primary LINUX native partition [0x83]
lvmdiskscan -- /dev/hdb3 [ 10 GB] Primary LINUX native partition [0x83]
lvmdiskscan -- 3 disks
lvmdiskscan -- 1 whole disk
lvmdiskscan -- 0 loop devices
lvmdiskscan -- 0 multiple devices
lvmdiskscan -- 0 network block devices
lvmdiskscan -- 4 partitions
lvmdiskscan -- 0 LVM physical volume partitions
