I think I understand what the problem is: the program is trying to make the calculation amount of ram = 7.6 + 1 but the problem is that bash does not support floating-point arithmetic. So 7.6 has to be first rounded to 8 before it's increased to 8 (zero based). I've fixed it with the new release v2.6.2. Thanks for the bug report :)

Did this solve your issue?

This solved that specific issue, but i've encountered a new issue further down the installation. Would you like me to open a new issue, continue it here, or contact you directly?

Thanks for your reply and work.

I think it would be better to open a new issue, so it's more visible for other people too.
