If you go through manual partitioning (make sure your old home partiion is set to not being used, click on "Done" or "finished" (sorry I forget the exact verbage, but it is the last menu item in the manual partition screen) , before it changes anything it will list exactly which partitions it will touch, then you have the option to continue or not.
