Severity: normal
The partition selection needs to be friendlier. It doesn't need to list the full path
but just the partition number, and it should list the filesystem type that is on the
partition, as well as the size of the partition.
As it is, it just asks what partition to install on, and says
1. /dev/ide/lun0/blah/blah/part1
which doesn't help if you actually have another partition with data on it that
you don't want to overwrite.

Hi,
di-utils-partitioner is no longer in the archive. It's replaced by
partitioner, which use the commond fdisk programs (frontends) like
fdisk, cfdisk, parted.
All relevant informations can be found with these programs.
So I think, I can close this bug.
Thanks
Thorsten
