Nope, you're on the right track. It doesn't really matter which
operating system you install first, as long as you have an HFS+
partition available to later install OS X (if you start with Linux),
or some free space available for Linux (if you start with OS X).
The 10GB listed as "free space" are what you will use to create your
partitions for Linux. Just create a swap partition, a / partition,
and optionally a boot partition, and you'll be ready to go. The
section in the install directions called "Preparing the Disks" is
really good:
