There are multiple workarounds to low storage.
1.The easiest way is of course add more storage but if and when it is not possible you have to do something else (at least if you want Linux Lite).
2. You can try to install an earlier version of Linux Lite from the same series (6.x) and then update, but if there really isn't enough space then this of course does not work.
3. You can add external storage (for example a tiny but fast flash drive) and install Linux Lite on that. If I remember correctly this also bypasses the storage check (it doesn't do magic so the installation still fails if not enough storage at the installation target drive)
4. I really don't recommend that but you technically can flash the LL install image to your computer. Then every time you shut down computer everything is lost (except data stored manually to other partitions and/or cloud storage) You can Google for live session persistence. After all this is not how you are supposed to install it and there will be a lot of problems (for example updates can't really be installed).
