Nvidia and "get apt" no longer works properly. (drapper)

[spiderslayer]

In the last 3 hours I have removed and reinstalled 6.06 I keep getting
the same error message that seems to be causing my problem. At the end
of the install it fails to initiate the mldonkey server and installation
stops. How much space does it require? I have almost filled my partition
its at 93%.

/dev/hda2 /ext3 total size is 4.6 GIB

How do I allocate more space from another partition and would that even
help?
