2008-10-30 01:02:50 Evan description Binary package hint: ubiquity Ubiquity allows the user to resize a partition, creating a new partition that's too small for the install to fit in. In my case, it allowed me to create a 2.2 GB partition as part of resizing, which is just too small to fit the installation into. This results in a ENOSPC ubiquity dialog, then the install fails. Binary package hint: ubiquity Ubiquity allows the user to resize a partition, creating a new partition that's too small for the install to fit in. In my case, it allowed me to create a 2.2 GB partition as part of resizing, which is just too small to fit the installation into. This results in a ENOSPC ubiquity dialog, then the install fails. This is because the minimum size for the new partition is hardcoded in partman-auto. We can calculate a better value for this, but we wont be able to factor for files that will not be copied as part of the blacklisting. This should be ok, as the user will want a little extra space for their files anyway.
