[Bug 1503441] Re: 8 GB isn't enough to install Ubuntu

[Brian Murray]

I think the beginning check about the amount of free space required
should be adjusted such that we don't reach the installation failure.

Title:
  8 GB isn't enough to install Ubuntu

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I was trying to install on an 8GB virtual machine and it crashed on
  me.  Come to find out this is because I wanted 4GB of RAM which ended
  up creating a 4GB swap space and left a 4GB root partition which
  wasn't enough.
