Tip: Once created, the MSR partition is a reserved partition and cannot be
deleted from the Disk partitioning menu. To delete the MSR partition, the
entire disk can be deleted as described in "Deleting the disk content" on
page 78.
The sizes of the ESP and the MSR partition are calculated according to the rules
described in 1.3.2, "EFI System Partition" on page 8 and 4.2.2, "Microsoft
Reserved Partition" on page 88 respectively.
Tip: Do not remove or resize the ESP and MSR partitions after they are
created. The ESP partition appears as Partition1 [FAT] and MSR partition as
Partition2 [Unknown] in the Disk partitioning menu during text-mode setup.
Follow the instructions to complete the text-mode portion of the installation.
At the end of the text-mode portion, a new Windows entry is added to the EFI
Boot Manager menu. After you restart the system at the end of text-mode setup,
the entry is launched automatically. (If Windows doesn't boot automatically,
select it from the Boot Manager menu.)
