The installer's automatic partitioning must create a functioning partition layout using disk free space for disk that are either blank or have a valid mbr or gpt disklabel. Pre-existing partitions, and their contents, must remain unmodified. The bootloader must be correctly installed. If the disk has insufficient free space, the installer must allow removal of user selected partitions.

* To account for blank disks.
