</p>
<p><a name="doPartitionDisks-pa9"></a>If you have unused space on an existing Windows partition, the installer may
offer to use it.
</p>
<p><a name="doPartitionDisks-pa10"></a>This can be a useful way of making room for your new Mageia installation,
but is a risky operation so you should make sure you have backed up all
important files!
</p>
<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
settings:
</p>
<p>"Align to" "MiB" </p>
<p>"Free space preceding (MiB)" "2" </p>
<p>Also make sure all partitions are created with an even number of megabytes.</p>
