DEFT 7 is based on Lubuntu 11.10 and the project's forum actually contains a topic where is is advised against upgrading to 12.04 (cf. http://www.deftlinux.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=127 ).
However I did see somewhere else (sorry, I can't remember where) the problem is that DEF Linux 7 installer crashes instead of warning the user there is not enough space on the destination partition. So the simple sollution is to simply use a bigger partition (about 4.6GB seem to me to be the very least but it will definitelly install alright on a 5GB (for DEFT 7.1, latest release is actually 7.2). There is also an expired similar bug for DEFT 7.2. I could find it when I posted this bug (which I did because the version is different) but now at this moment. Sorry. So I changed this to NEW but the workaround/sollution is rather simple. The "bug" is just lack of information... Not sure how to mark this though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1195270 Title: DEFT 7.1 Installer crash To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1195270/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
