In this case, "free space" refers to un-partitioned space. It does not
refer to free filesystem space on a formatted partition.

I never use Guided partitioning, but I would expect it to complain if
there wasn't any free space.

Someone mentioned leaving extra free space at the beginning of the drive.
I ran into this when installing grub2 onto a live-usb. Somewhere, I read
that it needs 2MB, so I always do that now.
