As the estimated time is shown in the updater, as mentioned in comment 1, and the other part (automatically freeing up disk space) is tracked in bug #291342, I am marking this as a duplicate of that one.

Title:
  adept based feisty upgrade and bug #1

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I just upgraded to feisty with the help of the little adept.

  First I must say it's the smoothest and least "worky" OS upgrade
  _ever_. VERY well done.

  I've some usability observations.

  After saying yes and next a number of times the upgrader concluded
  that I needed more disk-space in (/var/...).  I got enough disk space
  by running "apt-get clean" - since I've been upgrading my machine
  regularly there were a lot of packages still in the cache.  Adept
  might offer to do the clean for me, or say that I might try this to
  free up space.  In all I needed almost 2G free space on my / to be
  able to upgrade.  Zapping some oldish logs for the user might be
  another idea to reclaim space semi-automatically.

  There might be more information up front about what kind of
  undertaking this would be: "Warning: A upgrade may take anything from
  1 to 8 hours depending on your Internet speed and how fast your
  computer is."

  It would be cool if there was a "Start downloading now, and bug be
  about completing the upgrade later." option.
