If the current VM settings does not suffice you needs, you can try these while recreating the VM:
* Use manual partitioning: this will give you full control over the
size of partitions
* Use LVM (Logical Volume Manager): this way you can create virtual
drives/partitions, expand and shrink partitions. (I use LVM myself,
but it comes a a cost of (negligible) slow down of disk I/O).
