Re: disk druid - partition error

[Ramana Tadepalli <ramana wilnetonline net>]

its pretty simple.
You  have requested d-druid to make a partition larger than the space
available. If you have only one large disk used by Win, you will have to
first make space for Linux by repartitioning it.
Also remember, if there is lets say 100Mb space free and if you try to
allocate exactly 100mb to a partition it may not be possible. you must try
lets say 96 mB. On my m/c i lose some 4 mb between partions.
