Do this instead:

> bootManager=standard
> diskPartitionEditor

You want to do each disk "completely" before you move on to the next
one rather than fdisking one, labelling it, then jumping back to
fdisk. If you understood how truly evil a hack sysinstall's
"scripting" was, you probably wouldn't need to ask why. :-)
