Bug Description

When trying to install Linux Mint 17.3 alongside Windows 8.1,
 `ntfsresize -i -f ` is executed to test if enough space is available.

But this tool reports that the Volume has to be checked from windows first with `chkdsk /f`.

The user of the installer is just presented the "erase full disk and install linux mint", the information about the above failure
is not visible at all.

I'd like to see this information to be able to perform the check and then do the automatic parallel installation.
