Hi Robert,

"stable" is the recommended channel to use now.

Also check out the following stackoverflow answer which explains the 
difference between free and available memory: 
http://stackoverflow.com/a/16789805 It also provides a trick to be able 
to use more disk space. Should give you another 200 MB. ;)
Furthermore, I could imagine (i.e. I haven't checked it) that the home 
directory of the emulator shares its partition with the root directory, 
which would explain why there is so little space left.

Cheers,
Niklas
