Include disk space size if you want to test drive 'Spark` on a VM #88

Before I actually try your ansible scripts on an actual physical machine, I tried running it on a VM first.

Being stingy with the disk space requirements, I initially created an 8GB volume for root. But running the default ansible tasks quickly filled in the disk, and I had to restart from scratch.

I then tried 12GB, but it was still NOT enough.

To save the trouble on other people that might want to also testdrive Spark I added the following section.

Feel free to drop it, if you do not like it!

Thanks for a nice set of Ansible recipes, btw!

Thanks. I've never paid attention to the disk space required for a clean run.

Well, if you keep adding packages then even the 16GB will not be enough... :)

But it's a good starting point!
