Public bug reported:
i already have the partitions i need, and the swap partition i already
have is already known to other installs, so it'll be a bother to have to
change the fstab and hibernate/restore information for them. my
particular partition layout, in case it matters:
(parted) p all

i selected partition 5, as ext4, for /. when i dismissed that dialog, i
saw it had selected it for formatting, so i changed it to ext3,
unchecked format, dismissed it again, saw it was still selected for
format, unchecked it on the list this time rather than bringing up the
dialog. a bit klunky there. reviewing the list, nothing is checked for
format. good. clicked "install now". it warns me about / not being
selected for format. fine by me. the next dialog informs me that
partition 3 will be formatted as swap.
