Title:
  Installation on VirtualBox with a new 18GB btrfs partition fails
  because of insufficient disk space

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am trying to install Ubuntu 17.04 in VirtualBox with a VDI 18GB fixed size drive on a btrfs filesystem. After partitioning the hdd, choosing country and starting to fill my name the system apparently copies files to the hdd on the background already and fails because of insufficient space.
  Update: trying to install again on the same machine, just using ext4 instead of btrfs (choosing the very first default option for automatically partitioning the whole drive). On Ext4 it installs ok.
