Package: debian-installer-manual Severity: normal The recommended size for the root partition in Appendix C.2 (150-250 MB) should probably be reassessed in light of the fact that current Linux kernel packages are quite large (around 44 MB for linux-image-2.6.15-1-686).
When upgrading to a newer kernel version it may be necessary to have at least two kernels installed simultaneously, so this alone takes up 90 MB on the root filesystem. This exact problem has been reported by a user with a 200 MB root partition: http://lists.debian.org/debian-user-swedish/2006/01/msg00043.html (in Swedish). -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14-custom Locale: LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
