The key is in all the preceding messages "package x needs 175 MB on the 
/ filesystem"
Basically you need to clean up some more space so that the install can 
proceed OK, then repeat the apt-get dist-upgrade (it won't redownload 
the files - but don't delete them to clean up the space! They're in 
/var/cache/apt/archives)
