TrueDualBoot notes:
Enabling or disabling TDB will completely wipe your data-partition. Once enabled your data partition will be VIRTUALLY split which means that both systems together can use the full space of the data-partition.
There are some things which will break TDB:

everything which removes CWM(like Xiaomi Updater App’s live install)
ROM’s which don’t support mount_ext4.sh (I did not see any ROM without support yet)
