Bug Description

I did a clean install from Ubuntu Feisty Alternate CD AMD64.

Setup configured correctly the ntfs partitions.

After logging in, the "/" root partition was full !

Here you can see my partitioning scheme:

/boot - 100MB
/ - 3G
/usr - 5GB
/opt - 2GB
/var - 3GB
/home - 20GB
/tmp - 4.7GB
SWAP - 2GB

DU showed the following:
/ -FULL
/media - 90% FULL (only the ntfs partitions mounted and this percentage is incorrect)

After unmounting /media, DU showed the following:
/ - FULL
/usr - 75% FULL (/usr has 1.5GB out of 5GB...)

Using an Asus A8JS, 2GB RAM 120GB HDD, Core 2 Duo 7200.

I forgot to mention that the partitions created were all xfs except for the /boot partition, which is ext3.

It seems that you haven't enough room for the root partition (4GB and above). Have you tried the install with a larger / partition?
