    I have been running 22.04 on a 16GB USB testing Daily Build, Beta and Release. There is not a lot of room to install downloaded programs that I don't need or will never use, otherwise it works fine. I used a 32GB drive with 20.04 for a couple years without filling it up. – C.S.Cameron Apr 24 '22 at 17:12

    Well , looks like ubuntu does not takes much space at-all i dualbooted yesterday and everything seems fine. 25GB and 12GB Space free after installing some programs – creeprawman Apr 25 '22 at 20:17

I'd expect it to be approximately the same as 20.04;
here is what I see:

$ du -sh / 2>/dev/null
100G    /


$ du -sh /home
85G /home


$

So the large amount of data is in /home/
Approximately 15G used for OS and (a modest amount of) installed software.
Still, I do apt purge ... (and related) on software I don't use.

Running nicely on a laptop with i7 with 16G RAM and nVidia 1660i

Definitely yes, as I installed 22.04 on a VM with 30GB, I have installed quite a few things on it although nothing storage heavy and I still have about 10 to 15GB left, so yeah 25GB will be good

  • No need for this question. If you look at the hardware requirements of Ubuntu 22.04 it clearly says 25 gig is enough. BUT keep in mind that with snap now the install option for many apps more space is a good idea. – David DE Jun 17 '24 at 15:52
