Hello Komputes, Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with the Ubuntu installation size.
You made this bug report in 2012 and there have been several versions of Ubuntu since then including the minimal install of 18.04. Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket? Or, if it is still a problem, could you run the following (only once): apport-collect 958825 and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue. Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.

Ubiquity should utilize the screen where it says [HAS AT LEAST 4.5 GB available drive space] to make that size changeable by removing optional packages making it possible to install Ubuntu on smaller drives. Some ideas of "optional" packages. Some are quite large and I find that not everyone uses these: Libre Office Thunderbird Ubuntu-one Gwibber Empathy Rhytmbox/Banshee Gnome Games Totem Shotwell ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: ubiquity (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-19.30-generic-pae 3.2.11 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-19-generic-pae i686 NonfreeKernelModules: wl ApportVersion: 1.94.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: i386 Date: Sun Mar 18 16:11:13 2012 InstallCmdLine: noprompt cdrom-detect/try-usb=true file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed vga=788 initrd=/install/initrd.gz quiet -- InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Alpha i386 (20120222) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: ubiquity UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-meta/+bug/958825/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
