Description Glenn Holmer 2005-08-14 22:12:21 UTC
If an install is started with no free partitions (intending to overwrite an
existing one), on the screen after selecting KDE or GNOME is a warning saying
that there's not enough room and the selection reverts to minimal install. 
Shouldn't this come up only after partitioning options have been selected?

Please, attach the YaST logs. 
 
See http://www.opensuse.org/index.php/Submit_a_bug for details how to do it.

Well, this problem came up with the desktop selection before the proposal.  
  
I will change it to report "Disk Space Exhausted" and block the proposal  
instead of changing the base selection if software hasn't been selected yet. 
Comment 4 Jiri Srain 2005-08-18 15:37:48 UTC
Fixed in SVN and submitted for Beta3. 
 
The default selection is never reset, user is just informed that the selected 
software doesn't fit to the disk and is prevented from continuing 
installatino.
