I think your partition sda2 only has about 1/2 GiB free space. If that
is the partition for "/", then you should try to move some files to
another partition. Or you could try to make some space by removing old
kernels and also run the command "sudo apt-get clean" in a terminal
(konsole).
The partition for "/" is used during the upgrade to download the new
packages, and that needs a lot of free space. Actually the packages are
downloaded to "/var/cache/apt/archives", so if you make that directory a
symbolic link to a directory on another partition with sufficient space,
it could also work.
