If you only have just those two file systmes, / and /boot, then chances 
are that the log files are big.
1) Check under /var/log
cd /var/log
ls -l


Check what big files you have there.

2) Check for unread email under /var/spool/mail or /var/mail

cd /var/spool/mail
ls -l

remove big email files.


3) Check what directories are using more space with:

cd /

du -sk * | more

It will show you how many KB each directory under / is using.

Then cd to each one and check again with  du -sk *  to see how much 
space the subdirectories are using.


Then, you can isolate the file(s) that are using big space.




Next time, create a separate file system for /var.
