You'll need a free partition for the new root filesystem. Just create a
new filesystem on it and install a base system using debootstrap. After
that you only need to tweak your grub.conf to use the new filesystem as
/ and you're basically done.
But don't rely on my description, just google for a howto on that topic.
I know that there are several on the net because I use one of them
myself.
