Prerequisites

*************
|

|

* |CL| is already installed.
|

* There is unallocated disk space available. If the entire disk has been

allocated to |CL|, then shrink the root partition to make space for

|
||||
=====================
|
||||
|
||||
#. Start the Windows installer and follow the prompts.
|
||||
|
||||
#. At the :guilabel:`What type of installation do you want?` screen, choose
|
||||
:guilabel:`Custom: Install Windows only (advanced)`. See Figure 6.

.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
Normally, Windows creates its own 100MB EFI partition if none exists.
|
||||
In our case, where an EFI partition was created by |CL|, Windows will
|
||||
use the previously-created partition.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Select the newly-created partition and follow the remaining prompts to
|
||||
complete the Windows installation. See Figure 8.
