IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device
My machine is an Acer Aspire 5100-3959 (Turion64 MK 2GHz). The following disk layout was used:
On first attempt, the disk layout is listed below (around 4.5GB for Linux).
/boot 64MB
/var 1GB
/usr 1GB
/home 500MB
/ 1GB
swap 500MB (I'm not sure)
On the second attemp, the partitioning tool sent a warning telling that the / filesystem should be 2GB or greater, so the disk layout is listed below:
/boot 128MB
/var 1GB
/usr 500MB
/home 200MB
/ 2GB
swap 320MB
Theres a known issue with the second install problem.
Deleting and then recreating the / drive should allow the install to continue
