 I've run into the same issue on RC3, and would argue for higher severity 
 and priority.  There does not seem to be a workaround in the 
 installation process (e.g. the ability to add newfs flags during 
 partitioning), and this prevents the completion of a desktop 
 installation on a 10 gig VDI under VirtualBox.  Below is output after a 
 basic XFCE setup and only a few applications:

 I agree that a simple check for disk size in the installer would be a 
 reasonable solution.
 
 Cheers,
