it sure seems as though your '/home' is in / and not symlinked
elsewhere.
I am gathering that the du for /mnt aggregates the space used on other
filesystems though I was under the impression that du only considered
the current file system. Nope...I was wrong, it does aggregate space
usage across filesystems...I just checked on my system.
you've got a bunch of stuff in /root that may or may not be needed.
Thus if /home is really in / - then the stuff in /mnt/hda4 (if I recall
correctly) is just duplicate or old data and you might have more space
on /dev/sda that you can use - never did see what that looked like
besides your swap space.
