Actualizando mi post de anoche:

Cuando intento instalar el kernel nuevo me aparece un fallo porque en hdh2
no hay espacio. No se como liberar espacio en hdh2- pensé probar a
redimensionar con qtparted pero no tengo esa opción para esa partición.

Log sigue:

.../kernel-image-2.6.9-2-386_2.6.9-4_i386.deb) ... You are attempting to
install a kernel image (version 2.6.9-2-386) However, the directory
/lib/modules/2.6.9-2-386 still exists.  If this directory belongs to a
previous kernel-image-2.6.9-2-386 package, and if you have deselected some
modules, or installed standalone modules packages, this could be bad.
However, if this directory exists because you are also installing some
stand alone modules right now, and they got unpacked before I did, then
this is pretty benign.  Unfortunately, I can not tell the difference.

If /lib/modules/2.6.9-2-386 belongs to a old install of
kernel-image-2.6.9-2-386, then this is your last chance to abort the
installation of this kernel image (nothing has been changed yet).

If this directory is because of stand alone modules being installed right
now, or if it does belong to an older kernel-image-2.6.9-2-386 package but
you know what you are doing, and if you feel that this image should be
installed despite this anomaly, Please answer n to the question.

Otherwise, I suggest you move /lib/modules/2.6.9-2-386 out of the way,
perhaps to /lib/modules/2.6.9-2-386.old or something, and then try
re-installing this image.
Do you want to stop now? [Y/n]n

O sea, me pone una nueva entrada en Grub, pero ha sido una instalación
fallida. Por donde sigo :)
