Windows users might benefit if shown how to change the partition (or a 
link to pertinent instructions).

Possibly instructions like these, with appropriate screen shots.

Click Edit Partition Setup
Make note of the proposed setup.
Example:
 Device           Size     F Enc  Typ                      FS Type 
Label   Mount Point
 /dev/sda   20.00 GB         VMware,-VMware Virtual S
 /dev/sda1   1.48 GB  F      Linux swap               Swap               
swap
 /dev/sda2   7.69 GB  F      Linux native              Ext4            
    /
 /dev/sda3 10.82 GB  F      Linux native              Ext4              
  /home

Highlight the /dev/sda3 line, right click and Delete
Highlight the /dev/sda2 line, right click and Resize then Custom and 
enter 12GB
Highlight the /dev/sda  line, right click and Add Partition Select 
Primary and the remaining size.
  Format as Ext4, Select Mount Point as /home

Compare the new proposed setup to original.
It should be identical except /dev/sda2 = 12.00 GB and /dev/sda3 = 6.51GB

Click Accept and Next
