Tim, you're correct. I hadn't caught that before. It seems the partitioning portion of the installer went for a swap partition that left practically no space for anything else. I used the guided partitioning or whatever it's called.
When manually partitioning the disk everything works. This will likely be an issue for anyone installing on a machine with a lot of memory relative to the root storage device (in this case 128GB of memory and a 128GB SSD). Perhaps the guided partitioning should alert the user that there's not enough room for the install to complete or otherwise not just silently jack things up. Thanks for pointing out the message about the storage, I feel a lot better about it now. A smoking gun is a nice thing. ** Attachment added: "IMG_20170203_155431.jpg" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1640245/+attachment/4812818/+files/IMG_20170203_155431.jpg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1640245 Title: Ubuntu Server 16.04 install errors on linux-generic (dependency problem) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1640245/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
