Hm, I recently increased the image size to 32GB in #1009 and it seems I forgot to update the description file: https://github.com/home-assistant/operating-system/blob/dev/buildroot-external/board/intel/ova/home-assistant.ovf#L8.

As a work around, you can fix it manually by editing the ovf file in the ova archive. E.g.

tar xf hassos_ova-5.8.ova
nano home-assistant.ovf
tar cf hassos_ova-5.8.ova

Just wanted to notify you of the issue. A friend tried to download it. I'm running 4.17 on RPi 3 already.
After it failed for friend I downloaded it and tried it in my environment too..

So the number in line 8 is wrong, that is the capacity it used to be (6GB). It should be 34359738368 (32GB).

Increasee disk image capacity to 32GB in OVF as well (home-assistant#…

…1084)

After increasing the actual disk image size the capacity field in the
OVF description file still was mentioning 6GB. This seems to be
problematic for VMware hypervisor. Increase the size to 32GB as well.
