Are you sure you're not running it as a LiveCD? (Because in that case you might be running out of memory instead).

To check how full your disk really is do du -shc /* as root (this should give you a total at the end). If your disk really turns out to be almost full and you have enough space on your real hard disk you can probably resize it along the lines of this.
