Sarah,

Can you run ubiquity in debug mode (ubiquity -d) and attach /var/log/syslog, /var/log/installer/debug, and /var/log/partman to this bug report?

The too small size message happens when ubiquity feeds back a smaller size than partman-partitioning will allow, usually due to a rounding error or loss of accuracy when converting between units. I can easily fix that by having it feed back the minimal accepted value when it intended to send back a value less than that, but I will think over the implications of this first.

I agree that "Too small size" is a terrible error message and have filed bug 287635 for it.

I suspect your resizing error actually occurred in resize2fs or in partman-partitioning's selection of a wrong minimal resize value, but I'll need to see the logs to be sure.

Thanks
