Description Unknown 2003-09-23 19:58:00 UTC 
When installing, the user gets a warning of not enough disk space on device to
install, which is a "legitim" error in the current case.

 The installer does not quit, it only asks for more free space (it would be nice
to display in big the amount further needed? - I do not recall the actual dialog
window). So the user opens a file manager, makes some space, and pushes
back/forth, but the installer still claims there is not enough space on the
device -- although it has been freed already.

 For a workaround, the user has to quit installer, and relaunch it, to jump to
the next installing step.

 It would be nice, if the installer would be more informative, aware of the
situation and be more guiding.

Which OS is used? 'Other' doesn't help me out.

I can't reproduce. Maybe the 'recycle Bin' hasn't been emptied after
deleting files: Deleting files doesn't create free disk space, it just
moves files from one directory to an other.

Works for me.
