Within this dialog, select the partition to shrink from the drop down menu, followed by the amount of space by which the partition is to be reduced in MB. Note that to allow sufficient room for the Fedora installation, a minimum of 5GB is recommended (equivalent to 5120MB). Once the partition and reduction amount have been entered, click on the ''Shrink'' button to initiate the partition modification. The installer will display a dialog seeking confirmation that you wish to proceed. Clicking the ''Write changes to disk'' button will commit the change. Once the resize process has completed, select the ''Use free space'' option and click ''Next'' to continue with the installation process.

To being the Fedora installation process double click on the ''Install to Hard Drive'' icon on the Fedora desktop. Step through the initial setup screens, defining keyboard and language preferences. On the partitioning screen, select the ''Use free space on selected drives and create default layout''. if you are familiar with Linux partitioning and layout you may alternatively select the ''Create custom layout'' and manually configure the installation. This is only recommended if you know what you are doing. Click the ''Next'' button to proceed and follow the prompts to configure such items as networking, time zone and root password.
The installer will format the unallocated space ready for the installation of Fedora and begin copying files to the partition.
