[Bug 899683] Re: 12.04 installation in VirtualBox crashed due to weird partitioning layout ("No space left on device")

[Brian Murray]

Which particular Live CD are you using?  Do you happen to know how you
ended up with a separate /home partition?  I don't think that should
happen by default in the installer.

Title:
  12.04 installation in VirtualBox crashed due to weird partitioning
  layout ("No space left on device")

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Installed the 03-Dec-2011 daily live image (using erase all and use
  whole disk) and got a crash near the end of the installation (100%
  reproducible).

  The logs mention "No space left on device" a couple of times, though
  the target disk had plenty of free space left (I tested this with
  VirtualBox' dynamically growing virtual HDD as well as with the static
  full-sized HDD).
