Comments/Problems:

We were taken to the partitioner.  We set up the required partitions.
During this I made some bad primary/logical decisions, which meant
that part of the disk was unusable.  I deleted some of my partitions
and started again.  I wrote the changes to the disk.  The install did
not then proceed to formatting.

I then tried again with a Beta 4 CD.  This found the disk already
repartitioned.  The new CD had done the work, but the overall script
did not get this information.

<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
      and ideas you had during the initial install.>

The new partitioner looks better that the one on Beta 4.

Thanks for all your work.

Dave

Looking at this bug report, it seams to me very likely that the bug
has been fixed before the release of sarge.  Because of that I am
closing it.  Please feel free to reopen it or resubmit it if you think
that the bug still exists.

Thanks a lot for your report.
