The disk is 1TB, but the partition for lubuntu installation is 40gb only. Before the installation (or right after formatting the partition to ext4), 800mb of space was already used up. I asked if the 800mb initial used space is normal.
Marlon:

The process of formatting and creating the file system uses disk space, and is a small percentage of the total available space of the partition. Also, any 'bad-spots' detected during formatting (and excluded from file allocation) are included in that initially-used space.
