So, without it it apparently creates sparse files then ;-) Nevertheless, I find the nature of the problem somewhat suprising. The formatting of /boot should be the first thing done after creating the partitions. The "running out of space" should only happen when it has formatted / and tries to install software that needs more than those 3,9 GB on it.
