When you create the image in Vmware and Virtualbox you can configure it to pre-allocate the entire space you want to allocate or set it to growable, in which case the disk will be allocated with the size needed to hold the OS being installed and will expand as needed up to the total size you wanted. The resizable device is what I used to specify when I was using a VM.Folks,this is an issue that has me frustrated. I created a VM under VMware and VirtualBox and allocated 400GB as the disk size. I installed the F40 server iso on the VM, and it showed the disk size as 400GB, and the install went fine. However, when I booted the VM and looked at the disk size it was 15GB. This happened on both VMware and VirtualBox. I created another VM and installed MATE-F40 iso and when I check the disk size there it was in fact 400GB. So for shits and grins I tried running VMware on Windows 11 and created a F40-server VM there and it too showed the disk size as 15GB. Why is there this limit? Is there anyway to make it the size I want?
