Title:
  Don't set 2,5 GB as default minimum required disk

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  in file:
  /lib/partman/automatically_partition/10resize_use_free/do_option

  There is a line:

  maxsize="$(expr "$maxsize" - \( 2 \* 1024 + 510 \) \* 1024 \* 1024)"

  That sets 2,5 GB as default minimum size for new Ubuntu partition.

  With new filesystem.size file (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.size)  we can
  calculate this.

  This bug don't appear to affect the normal Ubuntu CDROM isos, but
  derivate DVD based on Ubuntu could need at least 8GB.

  I propose:

  maxsize= maxsize - (filesystem.size + [510 or 1020] )
  .
  Users can use more than this minimum, but its a failsafe setting.
