Thanks Stephen,
I believe the UEFI partition created by Windows was used by Fedora. You can see how the automatic install partitioned my disk here. https://i.imgur.com/76i1mqv.png
Everything appears to be working nicely, maybe one day I will learn about disks and partitions and will not feel afraid of creating my own partitions.
Glad the install went well.
Manually partitioning disks was an onerous task for sys admins in the bad old days. We didn't
have UUID's, so had to be careful to keep track of which disk needed to be partitioned, write down
the planned scheme, and carefully enter the parameters as text. Today's linux installers
do a good job without the need for manual intervention unless your use case is far outside the
norm.
