[Bug 1093791] New: Error: Out of disk space!
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1093791 Bug ID: 1093791 Summary: Error: Out of disk space! Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.0 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation Assignee: yast2-maintainers@suse.de Reporter: per@computer.org QA Contact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- I am doing a fresh Leap15 install, real iron, real disk. Initially I picked the wrong partition to install on, only 160Mb, so when I wanted to alter the software selection, I was told "Error: Out of disk space! ": Partition│Used │Free │Total │% │/ │ 1.90 GiB│ -1.75 GiB│ 159.3 MiB│1222% Very reasonable. I realised my mistake, and went to change the partitioning. I deleted everything, created just one partition, 75Gb. Went forward up until it was time to change the software selection, when I was told again "Error: Out of disk space! ". Remarkably, I was then permitted to continue changing the software selection. and although I kept getting a warning every now and then, the installation seemed able to start. Now I got a couple of pop-ups "Unexpected situation found in the system.", details saying "wait_for_devices failed /dev/sda1". I said continue a couple of times, and right now the installation seems to be running. I'll attach some logs later. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

But then, that machine appears to have only on 1 GB of RAM; depending on installation mode, this might already be on the verge of insufficient RAM.
The installation went fine once I picked the right partition. To me it looks like YaST didn't refresh the disk space numbers after I went to change to another partition? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

It is possible that some of that available disk space is cached a bit too aggressively in the YaST software selection, but this is an unrelated part; it should really not give you any more trouble than the (admittedly annoying) false alarm popups that you described.
Aha. So you think it the install should have worked just fine, the numbers were just wrong? I don't know - after I changed to the correct partition, I don't think it was mounted. That must be in the log?
The storage setup itself looks fine; see also file 09-committed.yml and 08-actions.txt in YaST/storage-inst in the y2logs tarball. I don't belive the problem is in that area.

To clarify:
I believe the initial complaint about running out of disk space was wrong after you changed the partition to use the large one; it should not have complained anymore.
Okay. I thought it looked like the partition was not mounted, but I may be mistaken. I have some more of these systems to install, I could try to reproduce.
During package installation, it runs out of RAM, not out of disk space. This is a genuine problem, but I believe that it is independent of that initial "not enough disk space" problem.
To me, this has only happened in this single unique situation. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I must have misread this one, have just tried the same thing on two systems, after changing to the correct partition, I get the complaint about space, but the partition is mounted and the installation continues.

Just now completing another install with 1Gb RAM and no swap. Only 200 packages left. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
