This bug is still present with the Lubuntu 13.04 beta 1 installer. Sigh.

I wanted to install Lubuntu 12.10 to a 4GB USB flash drive, but the
12.10 installer refuses to work if the disk size is less than 4.4GB.
That's a problem because Lubuntu would actually install fine on a 4GB
USB drive, especially if the user chooses to not create a swap
partition. But the installer

I just had the same problem with lubuntu-12.04-beta2-desktop-i386.iso,

I still rather like the idea of always letting the manual partitioning
option (now referred to as "Something else") proceed under any
circumstances. I mean we have to assume that someone using a manual
partitioning option has some knowledge of what they're doing.
I also realize that's not always t

Indeed,
but, for example, 4GB SSD Drives are now inexpensive, and on some laptops.
I also recall the pleas for help with 2.3GB hell when the system just used
2.3GB and then left no room for user data! Can we find a 'middle' ground,
or are such people faced with alternate install only.
Regards,
For what it's worth, the fudge factor is there not as a workaround, but
because we do not want users creating an Ubuntu installation that is
only just big enough to contain the system files. We should ensure they
have enough room to be able to use the operating system, including
storing documents,
As discussed during the installer virtual sprint, one option is to
establish a size whereby disks smaller than this should automatically
override the space check, provided that they have enough space (plus a
small amount) for the contents of the installation.
The rationale was that if a disk is sm

The Lubuntu Oneiric Beta 1 live-i386 image now says only 3.9GB is
required. I think the Ubuntu image says 4.4GB but I need to recheck
that.
So I started the "automated" install (install alongside) where my blank
4GB flash drive was the only unpartitioned space available, and I have
2GB of RAM, so

First of all I don't disagree with anything said here, but I do need to
do a better job of explaining what I was trying to convey ;^)
In order to keep things as simple as possible when I refer to "free

disc, this could include an
All I did for my low-disk-space ISO for Lubuntu 11.04 was to edit the
file casper/filesystem.size to contain a number lower than the one that
was there before. I then edited one line of the file containing
md5sums, so that the Test CD Image menu item still works. No change to
any code whatsoever
