This is the problem. The root filesystem is too small, so you will not be able to install or upgrade a Debian kernel. This is a bug[1] in the automatic partitioner that only got fixed in Jessie. There's no easy way out here, my choice would probably be to make a backup and repartition the disk. Cheers, Sven 1. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=693107
