[Question #78972]: update manager fase claim of no disc space

 

New question #78972 on Ubuntu:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/78972

This is my first try of a linux package and I have downloaded ubumtu 9.4


the update manager gives me this message;

Not enough free disk space

The upgrade needs a total of 389M free space on disk '/'. Please free at least an additional 289M of disk space on '/'. Empty your trash and remove temporary packages of former installations using 'sudo apt-get clean'.

'/' drive I presume means I have not selected a drive to save to?? But i am unable to find where or how to rectify this
I have even tried reducing the number of packets to install but it still gives me the same message

I have no trash to clean, my hard drive still has 200gb spare. I did allow umbuntu to auto select the partitions, was this a mistake? 

I had window xp home pre-installed before installing this
