really that seems impossible. GLI told me I couldn't have a boot
partion smaller than ~50MB it complained about it. and I think I
remember it complaining less because I was able to continue ... about
having 140GB /home partition it only wanted to make.... a 20GB
partition. but it absolutely would not do 32MB boot partion I have. it
was like giving me a negative number, I assumed these are features not
bugs.
That's not an installer imposed limit. It's a limitation of the slider bar used
for choosing the size. I haven't figured out how to decouple it from the entry
fields while still making it useful if you want to use it. Patches are welcome.
As for the 20GB partition, I have no idea. Perhaps that's a limit imposed by
libparted, but it's not a limit that *I* put into the code.
