My experience with upgrading on the J-Series is as follows:
In order to UPGRADE to 9.x you will need 512MB - that is you need
enough space in flash to store AND expand the 9.x code during the
upgrade and 256MB doesn't seem to cut it (even after "request system
storage cleanup" etc).
If however you already have a box with 9.x on it, I have had success
with running a "request system snapshot media removable-compact-
flash" to copy a working image back onto a 256MB flash, but clearly
if you do this, you're going to have to go through the whole process
again next upgrade (and you will have to physically visit each site to
drop in flash cards etc).
Do yourself a favour and grab some 1GB compact flash cards (though not
from Juniper) and make this issue go away for a few years - until
JUNOS doubles in size again!

I actually dont know why. I can just say I had the same experience as
you until I upgraded my flash to 1 1G flash (even though 512MB would
have been enough). With a larger flash the whole update worked fine.

Hi!
But why. I just saw in the Release notes, that the minimum flash
required is 256, maximum ist 512.

Hi!
Perhaps the problem? The disk is 256 MB

You need to make sure you have the new larger flash to go 9.X.
Whats
your flashdisk size?

Hi!
Yesterday I tried to upgrade a J-Series from 8.5 to 9.3R2. Shortly
after
the reboot I got a segmentation fault, every time the forwarding
daemon
started. When I try to start the daemon manualy, the segmentation
fault
also occur. A rollback was successfully, to the system runs stable
under
8.5 for now.
The log:
