Total disk space may not be an issue here, but I faintly recall that  
the default disk layout before 8.2 created too small a root partition.  
Rebuilding a kernel on 8.1 required more disk space on / than the  
default 500 MB. If that hits you here as well, you may need to resize  
partitions.

Markus
