FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
NOT Applicable
ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Debian Sarge
EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
Typical Web/mail server install. Disks are partioned into 8 diferent partitions
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When you install the j2sdk-1_4_2_05-linux-i586.bin self-extracting file using the directions shown on:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/install-linux.html
the install would fail if the last partition you have is less than 100 MB, even though you are installing it on a MUCH larger partition.
Example:
% df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda5 2883672 905032 1832156 34% /
/dev/hda1 457656 24627 408612 6% /boot
/dev/hda6 4806048 590372 3971540 13% /usr
/dev/hda7 4806048 303436 4258476 7% /var
/dev/hda8 14806048 46392 4515520 1% /home
/dev/hda9 4806048 32872 4529040 1% /tmp
/dev/hda10 150000 120000 30000 80% /win
If you tried to install this in /usr/local or /home, the install would fail because it would say you don't have enough room. The below line is what checks the size:
df -k . | tail -1 | awk '{if ( $4 ~ /%/) { print $3 } else { print $4 } }'
You need to add some type of way to check to see what physical partition you are on and then check the size of that partition.
Sorry, I can't currently think of away to do this that is portable across all GNU/Linux distributions.
ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
You will need atleast 105804 kBytes of Disk Free
Please free up the required Disk Space and try again
REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
