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- pensà probar a redimensionar con qtparted pero no tengo esa opciÃn para esa particiÃn.

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?
