Is there a way to skip this step given that writing a partition essentially means deleting everything on the drive? Puppy Linux didn't insist on writing the partitions when I installed it after putting Windows XP on the first partition.
Select manual paritioning, Update the mount points of the partition/s
you want to install to, select partition type and *format this
partion.
Install.
