Hi Corey,
I don't like my solution either, but it's the only one I found. When I
installed Fedora 24 (Cinnamon Spin) I hadn't this problem. I only
need to customize my partitioning and everything was there, I could
shrink Windows and install Fedora in the empty space...
But looks like they took that option away in Fedora 25. Or at least
they hide it so well I couldn't find it.
If you have a better workaround, please share it, I'll be glad to use
it.
But it's still a bug. If I choose to make partitions myself, I should
be able to edit the partitions and shrink the existing ones to make
room. Otherwise, what for a customised partitioning?
Cheers,
Sylvia

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,

Alternatively, the new git repo tool Pagure enables you to do
pull requests. HTH On 08/17/2016 09:40 PM, Sylvia Sánchez

it's a Windows user that 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. Cheers, Sylvia On Wednesday, 17 August

Minitool Partion
Wizard Free Ed. (
https://www.partitionwizard.com/download.h
tml), 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.

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.
