   dedicated partition. The recommended approach to building an LFS system
   is to use an available empty partition or, if you have enough unpartitioned
-  space, to create one. However, an LFS system (in fact even multiple LFS
-  systems) may also be installed on a partition already occupied by another

+  <para>It is possible to install an LFS system (in fact even multiple LFS
+  systems) on a partition already occupied by another
   operating system and the different systems will co-exist peacefully. The
   document <ulink url="&hints-root;lfs_next_to_existing_systems.txt"/>

+  procedures since it was written. This is only recommended for expert LFS

   <para>A minimal system requires a partition of around 1.3 gigabytes (GB).
