What remix? You mean a spin or a remix? This is a difference: A spin is
an official Fedora Product, a remix is not. And what did you update?
From F11 to F12?

root login is disabled in gdm since F10. Can you log in as a user on a
console?

Oh, I never heard of that one.

Hit any key to show the boot menu, then TAB to edit. Select the kernel
to boot with the arrow keys, then press E. Add s to the line that starts
with kernel=... Finally hit ENTER and B to boot. Your system will then
boot into single user level, you get a shell where you can change the
root password with the command passwd. The password for the user can be
changed after switching to the user with su <username>.

Or, passwd <username> as root ;-)

there is no issue with disk space. 50% of free space in the / and
more than 10% free space in /home
in the console i can see following error once i gave the user passwd
Unix_chkpwd [1774]: check pass: user unknown
here is the screen-shot
