	For example, for the boot sector it just says +500M, this would be familiar to someone used to fdisk. But someone who isn't doesn't even know what unit it is might assume they're just meant to add 500 to 2048 and write <code>2548</code>. This is an easy fix(probably by using code blocks) ~~though, but what I'm confused about is why in the tutorial it recommends using FAT32 for the boot partition~~.
