I cannot install netbeans 7.0 beta.

The installer does not recognise free space on my disks.  Please see the attached screen shots.

It looks like Mac native installer tool doesn't recognize your hard drives correctly. This is not NetBeans installer's issue. Do you still have this problem?

We haven't heard from reporter for a long time and were not able to reproduce
the issue in our environment. Closing the issue as worksforme.

cunneen, feel free to reopen if you still experience this issue, and
provide requested information. Thanks.

I'd forgotten about this issue. The latest stable version (7.01 I think) has been happily installed on my Mac for some time now.  I never found the cause of this issue.

If anyone experiences it in future, you can always download the zipped platform-independent bundle (it's what I did for a while).
