Comments/Problems:
When partitioning, I chose the guided partitioning, got to the review screen (with the undo changes/finish and write options), and wanted to go back and manually edit the partition table. When I went to “Guided Partitioning” and selected “Manually edit partition table,” the installer simply handed me back to the review screen without letting me edit the partition tables.
