THe old anaconda was fairly good in my experience (I seem to think there have 
been two major iterations) and did also warn users before having them press the 
final button.

I will try out GParted with the new anaconda to see how it goes. I am a bit 
surprised that the partitioning feature is gone, or well hidden.

Best wishes,
Ranjan
