How:
<pre>
start app manager &  download an upadte that needs more space than there's left on your rootfs
while downloading:
mv /usr/share /home/share
wait, go to toilet, come back, see errors & ssh disconnect msg

Result:
boot loop.
Ich würd' sowieso nicht empfehlen, Inhalte von /usr nach /home zu verschieben, weil es kann ja sein, dass von dort was während des Boot-Vorgangs gebraucht wird, wenn /home noch nicht gemountet ist.
