Until this critical aspect of installation is clarified, I won't be installing Ubuntu anytime soon, and I'm a lot geekier than the average. I know any normal user would _never_ get through that partitioning wizard. I reckon the only people getting through this wizard are experienced partitioners and people with a completely blank drive. That's not a lot of people. | Until this critical aspect of installation is clarified, I won't be installing Ubuntu anytime soon, and I'm a lot geekier than the average.
