[Planetlab-devel] Minimum disk size per MyPLC node

  Hey guys,

I can't seem to find a definite answer on this one; What is the minimum 
requirement for disk size per MyPLC node? I disabled the hardware check 
when trying to boot a node via ISO, but I'm still seeing:

Step: Checking if hardware requirements met.
15:57:01(UTC) Checking for available memory.
15:57:01(UTC) Memory requirements not met, but running anyway: 380864 kb
15:57:01(UTC) Detected block devices:
15:57:01(UTC) {'/dev/sda': (8, 0, 14680064, 15.032385536, False)}
15:57:01(UTC) Device is too small to use: /dev/sda
(appears to be 15.03 GB)
15:57:01(UTC) No suitable block devices found for install.

I noticed that the hardware requirements listed here: 
http://www.planet-lab.org/hardware are for a public PL deployment, but 
since this is a private PL we're looking at a lot fewer slices.

My apologies if this has been covered in an archived thread... I browsed 
around but I couldn't find anything that stuck out.

Thanks,
Brett
