Well - no, it actually doesn't say that.  What it recommends is that you
select all *drives* (i.e. whole disks), and it explicitly recommends
that you don't select partition boot records unless you have a good
reason.

The warning you saw is a direct result of selecting partition boot
records.

Cheers,
