It's the most likely one you will have.
That you may have (likely have) created the installation media with a
working computer doesn't mean that you have one at hand when you're
installing.

No, I merely gave some example questions a clueless users might ask
which could come up when they are reading the insufficient and confusing
text weaver suggested to put into the D/i. I didn't suggest anywhere to
answer them anywhere in the installer. If you read carefully, you may
find out that I assume that the D/i installer is not the right place to
be for people who need ask what a partition or what partitioning means
since my first comment in this thread.
