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></li></ul></div><p> </p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem"><p><a id="doPartitionDisks-pa12"><!----></a>Erase and use Entire Disk.</p><p><a id="doPartitionDisks-pa13"><!----></a>This option will use the complete drive for Mageia.</p><p><a id="doPartitionDisks-pa14"><!----></a>Note!

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></div></div><script
