Correct me from wrong, but this is the first time you mention that the system ran out of space because too many packages were selected. Would there have been a way for me as the user to see, that all the software I want to install would make the system run out of resources, be it disk space or memory? Like a warning for example? I currently don't see any indication on how much space the packages I am about to install will require. > Please use appropriately sized machines, for the installation target.

I would have thought that 2 GB of memory would be fine to install an Ubuntu system. Do you have an estimate on how much memory and disk space I would need to successfully install all the packages I selected? Then I will try again and see if it fails again -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1692911 Title: Installation with many package groups selected is not possible To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-z-systems/+bug/1692911/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
