[Bug 134505] Re: installer create huge swap partition

[patrick_g]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: base-installer
  
- My laptop his a centrino Core 2 Duo with 2 GB RAM and 160 GB hard disk.
+ My laptop is a centrino Core 2 Duo with 2 GB RAM and 160 GB hard disk.
  
  When i install Ubuntu Gutsy Tribe 5 (with default options) the installer
  create an insanely large swap partition (6 GB !!!!!)
  
  I think the default install should create a sane default swap partition and not a huge one like this because it's a lot of space lost for the user.
  Perhaps 2 GB max size ?
