@ Erick,

I added the following statement to the "Boot, installation, upgrade and post-install" section of "Known Issues" on the10.10 release notes, where these notices are typically found :
 * In dual boot installs, side-by-side partitioning can be overridden by the user, resulting in data loss. After selecting the "Install alongside other operating systems" option, clicking on either the "Use entire partition" of "Use entire disc" buttons will override the side-by-side partitioning and result in a loss of data.
