Description priest 2007-05-19 22:57:23 UTC 
The free space checker (inside the installer, not the first space check to
ensure enough space to extract installation) seems to be hard coded to only
check the root partition. 

In the installer i choose to install netbeans to my home dir (with enough
space), but the space check look on the root partition instead of my
home-partition, and because of my small root partition (100 MB) the installer
refuse to install netbeans.

I have tried on two computers:
1. NetBSD 3.1/i386, Sun Java 1.5, root-partition 100 MB (linux emulation)
2. Debian 4.0/i386, Sun Java 1.5, root-partition 100 MB

(netbeans-6.0m9-full-linux.sh)

The issue is just the same as the issue 103479.

priest,
could you please run installer in the verbose mode 
"sh netbeans-6.0m9-full-linux.sh --verbose --output out.log"
and attach the resulting installation log file to that (103479) issue?
