These were all existing partitions when installing 8.10 over 8.04. I
selected manual partitioning and edited sda6 to set it to ext3, format
and mount at /. Clicked continue and after it formatting sda6 it
complained that the installer was unable to use sda5 as swap. I've been
using these same parition's since before the 7.x releases so its
definitely something new with the installer.
