[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
When attempting to resize a partition, you get this warning:
"Warning: Shrinking a partition can cause data loss, are you sure you want
to continue?"

I think it should be more clear on what to do first. Something like:
"Warning: Shrinking a partition can cause data loss unless you first resize
your filesystem. Are you sure you want to continue?"

Thanks,
Alexander Summers
