Title:
Awful sentence in "Install ... alongside" step
Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
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.
<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."
