Description

Currently the error message you get is very vague when you try to install without enough space, as it's a generic file creation error. This could be mitigated by showing a warning before proceeding with the installation if not enough space was detected, and asking the user if they're sure they want to proceed, defaulting to 'No'.

Research direction

The issue does not name a file, test, or entry point. Locate the installation flow and its existing generic file-creation error, then trace how available space is checked before installation. Done means insufficient space produces a warning and a confirmation that defaults to “No,” while sufficient space proceeds normally.
