where exactly are you in the install process?

I believe if you haven't chrooted yet then df-h won't give you anything useful because your still in the "live" environment.

make sure you dowload the md5sums and check the tarball then retar it.

You should put this reply in your original thread, instead of creating a new one, just copy and paste your reply and do a "post reply".

Then ask a moderator to delete/lock this thread.

p.s. where does it say that sda2 is not full?
