Greetings!!

The disk originally had only windows 10, a diagnostics partition and a
system restore partition.

I can not wipe windows to let Linux use the entire disk.

Also, there is no room to create a larger boot area on /dev/sda.

I burned a DVD from the iso using Brasero - and I have no idea what boot
the installer uses.
I received no warning messages when loading and starting the DVD.

Which warning message do you refer to.??

Thanks,
Jay and Jane
