Title:
  after resize I get a error that the partition is too small

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  During a dvd install ubiquity offered me to resize my disk. I did that
  and pushed the slider to the maximum right it allowed me (5,4 GB for
  hardy in some yellow/red; 2,2GB Ubuntu 8.04 without color).

  It looks like it allowed me change the size to a smaller size than it
  actually requires and gave me a (untranslated) error message that the
  size of the partition is too small and that it needs 4740861440 bytes
  on "/". Then it offered me to go back and I am in the manual partition
  editor now.

  (There is also a small usability bug here. Because the image had a
  test install of 8.04 already its not obvious to me what space I
  allocated for the new install and what for the existing parition).
