4. Making Room for Fedora

Fedora requires a volume of unallocated storage space for installation. To make room for Fedora, both the existing filesystem and the partition it resides on must be resized.

4.1. Using the Fedora Installer to resize partitions

The Fedora installer provides a guided graphical method for resizing partitions and reclaiming space. This method is simpler and easier than the others discussed in this section. For most simple dual boot situations, using the installer to reclaim space will be the most expedient and foolproof method.
Resizing partitions with the Fedora installer is covered in the Fedora Installation Guide
