Note
If you want to install the operating system on a data medium connected to a storage
controller unknown to the operating system, you have to integrate the driver of the storage
controller. Integrate this driver before you partition the data medium and before you install
the operating system.

Make sure that the partition on which you want to install the operating system is large
enough and is set up with a NTFS file system.
The recommended minimum size of this partition varies, depending on the operating
system, how much RAM you have available and how much additional software you want
to use. Information on how the data medium is partitioned in its factory state is available
in the tables below.
2.
Select the partition on which you want to install the operating system.
