In Windows 7 I cannot shrink /C partition (more than 600mb) as there are files which cannot be moved by defrag. There may be complex work-arounds but I'm not going there now.
I feel for my purposes that the 12gb available on that computer's Recovery partition would be enough.
But! - it shows 1% fragmented, and the defrag will not work on it. A look on Windows 10 Forums suggests Recovery partition cannot be defragged.
Question: Can I install LL 4. to this partition, or will the 1% fragmentation make it a no-no?
Edit: Or I could re-format that partition to ext4 using gparted in the live iso?? Then I could install there...?
