I agree.  I had similar problems the very first time I tried to install 
YDL 2.0

I don't think the installer checks the available space before trying to 
install. (?)

You would think that this would be a basic prerequisite for such a 
program...

BTW, it does say on my YDL 2.2 box that it requires 2 GB free drive, but 
then
it says visit 'www.yellowdoglinux.com/support' for exact specifications.  

However, this page doesn't really list the specs as far as I can see.
