What kind of "disk" space do you have available? You might be able to add a

I understand that there is a lot of disk space, as an SD-card is used for the 
root file system.

meminfo says:

SwapTotal: 0 kB
SwapFree: 0 kB

though.

Maybe I need to create a swap partition and activate it. But I have no idea how 
I can do this.

Try something like this:
  # dd if=/dev/zero of=/SWAP bs=1024 count=512M
  # mkswap /SWAP
  # swapon /SWAP

This will generate a SWAP file (not partition) of 512MB which should
be more than enough for you to run opkg.
