Description of problem: During the installation from live CD, following message is reported: """The root filesystem you created is not large enough for this live image.""" That makes sense, as the machine that I'm installing on has very limited resources, but: a) I'd like to know what is "large enough". b) I'd like to know that it isn't large enough before there is too late to change the setting. By the time this gets reported, it's no longer possible to get back to the partitioning screen, presumably because I decided to use the swap immediately (only 180MB of memory on this box). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): FC7-test4 Live How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Partition the disk in such a way that not enough space is available on /. (This was ~900MB in my case.) 2. Have too little memory, so that swap is immediately turned on (maybe this step isn't necessary). 3. Continue installation process. The message appears after the root password screen. Actual results: As described. Expected results: As described. Additional info: No.
Without large invasive changes to anaconda, this was the only place we could really slot the check in. And yes, you only can't go back due to early swap.
Ok. Any chance of at least mentioning required "large enough" size in the dialog?
(In reply to comment #2) > Ok. Any chance of at least mentioning required "large enough" size in the dialog? That would break every translation, which isn't really appropriate. We've already been bad enough about late string changes.
