Karderio's right, the material you have so far looks
more like a tutorial than documentation.
Still, it's a start :)
What I suggest we do is put the text you've written so

start working on it together.

Yes, we should put a note in that if the user wishes
to resize partitions used by the system, they should
obtain a LiveCD.
