filesystem incorrectly, reporting an incorrect disk space
value.
Customer needs to manually ensure that they have the needed
disk space and continue with the installation.
Problem conclusion
The InstallShield has been updated with the correct fix to
handle an autofs filesystem.
In the meantime, ensure that there is enough space, and
continue with the installation.
