Hi!
I opened a bug and added this link

as documentation of what happened and how did I solved it, but I didn't receive any
reply up to now. Ideas? Suggestions?
Cheers,

That is the simplest way that still allows some tracking of progress I

Hello, So I should write everything and then open a bug in Bugzilla. Therefore one of you
will pick it and convert it to DocBook. Did I understand it correctly? Sorry if I do too
many questions. Cheers, Sylvia On Wed, 2016-08-17 at 22:42 +0200, Stephen Wadeley wrote:
Hello You can write the procedure in plain text, markdown, whatever you like really, and
attach it to a bug (the old, simple, reliable way). We will convert it to DocBook for you.
Alternatively, the new git repo tool Pagure enables you to do pull requests. HTH On

can be done. But my question wasn't that. I found the way to do so during
installation. What I wanted to do is document the process. My question is "How and
where I can do this?" (documenting the way it's possible to shrink a partition
during the Install process). As a side note, it was quite clear how to do it in Fedora 23.

honestly, in the described case, I see the most comfortable option for less experienced
users in downloading Minitool Partion Wizard Free Ed.
(
https://www.partitionwizard.com/download.html [2]), shrink the partition through this
well-known application (it is really easy and straightforward) in Windows, make a room for
Fedora this way, then install Fedora. Additional tip: You can install grub-customizer for
easy managing of the loader choices. Best regards, -- Mirek Jahoda Technical Writer,

PM Subject: I found a small hole in documentation Hello folks, I was trying to install
Fedora in a laptop but I didn't want to delete the Windows partition, just shrink it.
I naturally looked up in Documentation as it's not obvious in the partitioner how to
shrink a partition to make room in hard disk. I didn't find it. Not I found it
anywhere else. I eventually found it out by myself so I would like to help others
documenting the process or if it's a known bug, adding a warning to documents. Now....
How can I do that? Cheers and thanks, Sylvia -- docs mailing list

Not sure I get what you are claiming is a bug, last I read the install
guide it uses another 'safer' workaround. Also the workaround you show
in your blog post is not generally speaking hard but still not advised
for a novice user either.
