Description
When you install Ubuntu with other O.S. installed. You have the option "To Install in the free space contiguous", but if you don't defrag previusly the partiton, you would have problems with this option, beacuse you couldn´t make a partition with the real free space.
The solution is that you would chose the option "Make a defrag before you could choose make the partitions"
Sorry for my English ;)

Then defrag inside Windows then, since that seem to be what you already have.
Linux does not need defrag.

I agree, as it is really important to defrag a win partition before installing a linux OS, the user should be warmed about this issue.
Or, better, offered the option to do it!

However "sudo fsck.ext3(2) /dev/sdnn" is sometimes needed, for example if you use a casper-rw on USB-stick and get (to)low memory, so the shutting down process hangs.

That defrag stuff is not so much for the benefits of Linux.
Forget about Windows!
