It's not possible using _guided_ partitioning, but if you use manual partitioning, you can pretty much create any partitioning scheme you like. Wishlist bugs are not needed for this because guided partitioning was never intended for such highly customized schemes (it should be possible using preseeding, but that's not what Jordi is asking AFAICT). With manual partitioning there's also an option to skip the "wipe" of the partition with random data. Cheers, FJP
