Bug Description

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty) ISO CD installation

I think this is related to bug #9459.

Tried to install Ubuntu on

a) 800MB partition
b) 1.2 Gb partition

Installation failed two times when disk space ran to zero.

=> The installer really should check for sufficient disk space and issue an
appropriate warning if free disk/partition space it too low.
Maybe ist should check just after partitioning. (Could not quickly find the disk
space requirements on the web site.)
