This still happens in 14.04 beta2 on a virtualbox (4.3.10) install, using a dynamically allocated VDI format virtual disk (size of disk doesn't appear to matter).
Before installing (just using the live image), sudo parted -l shows details for /dev/sr0, but for the drive I'm planning to install to, its just "Error: /dev/sda: unrecognized disk label". After install, I see: Model: ATA VBOX HARDDISK (scsi) Disk /dev/sda: 19.3GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 17.2GB 17.2GB primary ext4 boot 2 17.2GB 19.3GB 2145MB extended 5 17.2GB 19.3GB 2145MB logical linux-swap(v1) ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350834 Title: ubiquity reports wrong disk space in step 4 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/350834/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
