It does format them for you, I think the step is called initiali(s|z)e a
linux partition. This one should be called before trying to mount the
filesystems, did you do that?

We are not talking about amiga partitions here are we? After all you want to
install on an ext2fs partition. Try formatting your linux partition from
inside the installer 9or by hand if that does not work) and then mount them,
from inside the installer or by hand.
