Bug#224659: Summary



To summarize:

Before formating the hard drive, I got:
    WARNING: This will destroy all data on the partitions you have
assigned
    file systems to.
    ...
    Ready to create file systems and mount partitions

I told partconf to format one partition (/dev/hda1) while leaving the
rest alone (/dev/hda5 was to be mounted as /home; this was a hard
drive which had some Linux stuff on it already).  So obviously it is
only going to format _one_ partition, while mounting more than one.
It would be nice if this warning would show me exactly which
partitions it is going to format.

   e.g.
   Formating and mounting:
       /dev/hda1 (ext3)
   Just mounting:
       /dev/hda5

(It did the right thing, though, and only formated the first
partition.)
