Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: base-installer
I have a hard disk that had kubuntu breezy installed. I had several
partitions, with /, /home/, /boot, swap being hda8, hda9, hda7, hda10
respectively.
When I chose to delete / and reformat it, the installer showed partition
numbers that were different from the output of what fdisk -l shows.
To complicate matters further, on pressing 'continue' on that screen
shows the partitions, whether we want to format them, and the label --
this screen shows the partition numbers that are consistent with fdisk
output.
I would say this is a grave bug, as users might choose incorrect
partitions because of the inconsistencies in the two pages that show the
partitions.
