** Description changed:
Ubuntu 13.10
1. Start the installer on a system that has another OS installed and at least
one tiny partition.
2. Choose "Install Ubuntu 13.10 alongside" whatever, and choose "Continue".
What happens: The next screen says something like
1 smaller partition is hidden, use the _advanced partitioning tool_ for
more control

What's wrong with this:
* It's a run-on sentence.
* It says the partition is "hidden" as if it is actually concealed on disk.
"Not shown" would be less confusing.
* It refers to an "advanced partitioning tool" as if that is something
outside the installer, when it isn't.
* The sentence is missing a period.
- This is an error in the design. <http://goo.gl/4xOlO5> Bug 654531
- suggests that a better design might mention the total size of the hidden
- partition(s).
+ <http://goo.gl/4xOlO5>: "If any partitions are too small to be shown,
+ below the chart should be text of the form 'X small partitions totalling
+ Y GB are not shown.', opposite an 'Advanced…' button that switches to
+ the “Allocate disk space” step."
