Bug#591277: debian-installer: Root LV created awfully small
Package: debian-installer Version: d-i Severity: minor I picked the netinst iso and installed Squeeze this weekend into a virtual machine (VirtualBox) using an 8 GB virtual hard drive. I decided to use LVM with seperate /home LV and had d-i decide on the LV sizes. d-i chose the size of the root LV to be about 2 GB, giving me just enough rope to hang myself. It ran out of disk space when I tried to install GNOME. This is of course my fault (I should have checked the LV sizes d-i suggested) but some sanity checks on LV / partition size would nevertheless make sense.

Ah, this is something we should have a look at, indeed, these default and minimum size for partitions. Thanks for reporting. signature.asc Description: Digital signature
