Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Steps to reproduce:
1. Prepare a VirtualBox virtual machine with a 7,78 GB virtual hard disk.
2. Insert the Ubuntu 7.10 Desktop CD in the virtual machine and start it.
3. When you are in the Live CD desktop, create a 7,78 GB NTFS partition (all
the disk) using GParted.
4. Click on Install to install Ubuntu on the hard disk.
5. In the partition setup step, you can see the first option "Guided", which
shrink the NTFS partition at 50% (by default).
Expected behavior:
The new partition size is 3,9 GB (which is 50% of 7,78 GB).
Actual behavior:
The new partition size is 2,79 GB (which is ~ 36% of 7,78 GB).
** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New

The "guided" installation option computes new size wrongly when it's going to
