I tried to install new ubuntu 10.04 on my old desktop (Athlon64 3000+, 2Gb RAM, 256 ATI video). HDD - 120Gb, partitions: 150 Mb - boot, 15Gb - root, 100Gb - home. In the end of copying files installer crashed with error "low disk space" - but in fact it has more that 10Gb free. Have any ideas?

P.S. sorry for my English

I know how to install in - I`m using debian during las three years :)
The problem is why ubuntu installer thinks that partition has low space when it has more that 10Gb free?
