Public bug reported:
I downloaded the 11.04 desktop i386 iso, put it on a usb drive so i
could it install it on my netbook, but couldnt even get past the install
screen, because it says i need 4.4GB to install ubuntu 11.04. The
problem is that my hard drive is only 4GB large, a common size in
netbooks. I have run installers for ubuntu 10.10, 10.04, 9.10 and 9.04
netbook editions on my netbook and never had a problem before. I notice
that 11.04 has netbook and desktop editions combined into a single ISO,
so maybe that is why the error happened in 11.04 and not before.
Also, I notice that the install footprint of 10.10 is around 2.1GB, so
it shouldnt be a problem running 11.04 unless they truly added 2GB of
junk to the OS. The problem is I just can't get past the installer.
