Thomas,
When you get these errors, look over the file, it normally tells you
what the issue is. In this case:
dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-2.6.18-6-686_2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch1_i386.deb
(--unpack):

`./lib/modules/2.6.18-6-686/kernel/fs/9p/9p.ko': No space left on device
you have no space left on the device. The "device" is the
harddrive/partition for /var.
If you did not make a partition for /var then it is on the same
partition as "/"
run "df -h /" with out the " If you have /var on a different partition
run "df -h /var"
it will display the diskfree info for the partition of / or /var. I
think you will find no room free.
Feel free to post back your results, you will find, as long as you are
clear on what you are asking (or in your case stating you don't know
much at all) this is a friendly mail list and most will be willing to
help you.
HTH!
