[Bug 215170] New: Using custom partitioning, the user is not warned about too small root partition size for installation
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=215170 Summary: Using custom partitioning, the user is not warned about too small root partition size for installation Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: knocte@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com I have just installed a SUSE Linux 10.1 (DVD9) and I selected custom partitioning. I created a partition for the mount point "/" too small, so when the system got installed and the computer rebooted, GDM didn't start and pursuing a 'df' command I found out that the root partition was full (100%). The installation should try to guess the size needed for installation, depending on the packages that the user selects, and warn him/her if it is too small. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Storage modules cannot know how large the packages to install are. AFAIK this is done in module SpaceCalculation.ycp.
