About the upgrading, as quantumbox said, best is to use changes=/... not changes=EXIT:/..
But if you do want to try with the EXIT: (after backup of changes made), then you can add e.g.
Code:
ramsize=90%

to the kernel boot line.
The default is 60%, so with 90% you'll have some more (using EXIT the changes are in RAM) and will probably finish OK with 4GB RAM.
I just did "apt-get upgrade" on BD Cinnamon and it really took a lot of space for me (but was long time ago since I did it).
