I just wanted to post how I managed to set the mount points of my partitions, because it took me a while (and a few installs) to find it out. I hope it helps someone.
First I partitioned my hard disk in a terminal window with "sudo gparted /dev/hdb". Then I started the installer, and selected "Manually Edit Partition Table". It did not recognize /dev/hdb but I just clicked "Forward". There I found out I could set the mount points! Wow! -- gparted does not detect sdb https://launchpad.net/bugs/60868 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
