+
+ <p><a name="doPartitionDisks-pa11"></a>Note that this involves shrinking the size of the Windows partition. The
+ partition must be "clean", meaning that Windows must have closed down
+ correctly the last time it was used. It must also have been defragmented,
+ although this is not a guarantee that all files in the partition have been
+ moved out of the area that is about to be used. It is highly recommended to
+ back up your personal files.

+ <p>Some newer drives are now using 4096 byte logical sectors, instead of the
+ previous standard of 512 byte logical sectors. Due to lack of available
+ hardware, the partitioning tool used in the installer has not been tested
+ with such a drive. Also some ssd drives now use an erase block size over 1
+ MB. We suggest to pre-partition the drive, using an alternative partitioning
+ tool like gparted, if you own such a device, and to use the following
