The system was very sluggish when that happened.

Harddisk size about 120 GB.
The partitioning window of the installer was several screen width wide so that it needed to be resized to become operatable.

Could you please attach /var/log/installer/syslog, /var/log/syslog, and /var/log/partman to this bug, using the "Add Attachment" link on the bug's web page? Thanks in advance.

[Henrik Nilsen Omma (henrik)]

Yes, 192MB is very low for this use. Will you be able to provide these log files? Without them we will not be able to follow up this issue further. Thanks.
