Try this:
cp -a /var/cache/apt /usr/local/apt
ln -s /usr/local/apt /var/cache/apt
Thanks for the suggestion. However, what I ended up doing
was to just make /var 512MB:

This way it should not annoy me for quite a while =)
So, after that I was finally able to use tasksel and install quite a
few packages. I guess the next step is to actually start using the
machine (my second linux box ever; my first one was a Mac SE/30 I
installed linux on just to say I could; the next day it was bagged
and boxed and forgotten. This IPX, however, will be seeing some
action).
