when they want to install Ubuntu or Windows alongside the openSUSE system
That does not answer the question - are we expecting Ubuntu or Windows to put molasses of data into the ESP? openSUSE certainly does not at present.
Advanced Format 4K Native drives (4-KiB-per-sector) drives, the size must be at least 256 MiB because that's the minimum partition size of FAT32 drives
So one could choose FAT16.
Really, 15 years ago in Europe it was already almost impossible to buy a disk smaller than 10GiB.
I am not arguing about the size choice of 256M, but I wish, in general, that everyone could get over the narrow-sightedness that everybody has, or has to have, high-density slow-access spinning hard disks. Flash was and is still one power-10 order of magnitude smaller, then (40 GB vs 4 GB CF card) and now (10 TB rust vs 1 TB SSDs). And that Optane looks like some more power-2 orders down in terms of size... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
