[Bug 1663298] Re: Xubuntu 16.04.2 has no auto-resize installation option
To eliminate the possibility that ubiquity won't offer to resize if there is more than one installation on there, I drummed up a virtual machine with *3* installs on it, and ran the installer and was still given the option. So at least 4 are supported. ** Summary changed: - Xubuntu 16.04.2 has no auto-resize installation option + ubiquity does not always provide auto-resize option -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1663298 Title: ubiquity does not always provide auto-resize option To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1663298/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1663298] Re: Xubuntu 16.04.2 has no auto-resize installation option
I will say I find a lot of conflicting information in the comments. Looking at the tracker, it seems that it is not consistently reported by all testers. I also noticed flocculant tested not only Xubuntu but Lubuntu with success. I notice that it has been reported against i386 and amd64 but not across all flavors. tl;dr, without a very clear testcase, this bug is likely to be difficult to reproduce. I realize the tracker testcases themselves describe a process, but perhaps there's some ambiguity that is resulting in different results.

This seems related to the size of the already installed swap partition and memory at time of the new install.
