Your likely to have to put the archives directory on /home.
The downloaded .deb's go into /var/cache/apt/archives. You can
get stuff in small chunks and clean in between apt-get's. Or, you
can use a sym link to put the archives tree over on /home so
you have more download space. At the end, "apt-get clean" and
put the original archives dir back in place.
