[Bug 1922323] Re: I cannot install Ubuntu alongside Windows. I got an 'insufficient space' error but I made sure to allocate 6gb for Ubuntu. Please help.

[Chris Guiver]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

If you look at the minimum suggested requirements for Ubuntu Desktop
(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements),
you'll note the recommended minimum is

"25 GB of hard-drive space (or USB stick, memory card or external drive
but see LiveCD for an alternative approach)"

You mention 6GB, which is a fair bit below the 25GB recommended minimum.

Bug reporting is mostly about finding & fixing problems thus preventing
future users from hitting the same bug.

I suspect a Support site would be more appropriate, eg.
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu. You can also find help with your
problem in the support forum of your local Ubuntu community
http://loco.ubuntu.com/ or asking at https://askubuntu.com or
https://ubuntuforums.org, or for more support options please look at
https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/community-support/709

I've marked this incomplete, as it seems to be user/operator error.
Further you seem to be seeking support (this can be changed into a
question which will be about support).

If you believe I've missed something, or have made an error, please
leave a comment with the details and you may change the status back to
"New".
