Ask Ubuntu Asked by Wassap124 on February 9, 2021
Bought a new laptop and wanted to install Ubuntu on it.
When I try to install it says
you need at least 8.6 GB disk space to install Ubuntu. This computer has only 7.4 GB
Now, those 7.4GB are clearly the flash drive – but why would the installer think I’m trying to install ubuntu on the flash drive?
I have installed ubuntu several times before (dual boot), and have never encountered this
As you probably figured the SATA mode is needed to be changed from RAID to AHCI, but I didn't have the option in BIOS.
The trick is that my acer laptop hides that option by default - and can be revealed by using CTRL+S
in the BIOS main tab (this isn't prompted anywhere).
It is not needed to install windows, just change it to AHCI, if not possible to change press
ctrl+s
on the main tab in BIOS. You better disable secure boot and fast boot. -- Acer Community Forums
