  1. When you walk through the instructions, change the Linux container disk size from default 10GB to at least 20GB [a fresh installation takes 15GB. It is suggested to give at least 20GB, so as to leave room for installing customised modules.]. If you need to install lots of customised modules, you may want to make more room for them.
