That page is exactly what I was looking for. I followed each step and all went OK. In case that document is targeted also to inexperienced users, I would suggest the following changes: * Step 5: specify to click on "Done" after selecting "Custom" * Step 10: specify how to remove the "root" subvolume, also mentioning what to do when the dialog box "Are you sure you want to delete all of the data on root?" appears. Thank you. Best regards, Marco
