Public bug reported:

During the installation of Ubuntu 6.10 (from a dvd that came with the
german magazine c't) the installer wouldn't let me continue with the
selection of filesystems, because it complained that I hadn't selected a
root fs. Though I _had_ selected a partition as root fs (with the
"format" flag checked).

I could continue the installation after formatting the new partition
myself with gparted started from the live dvd.

I *think* the mess might have something to do with my aborting the
installer after partitioning (which I did because I was confused about
the renaming of the partitions... I first deleted partition /dev/hdc7
and created a new partition in its place but didn't realize this process
renamed the partitions hdc8, 9 and 10). Then I restarted the installer
and selected the new partition (which was now called hdc10) as root fs,
but the installer complained about no root fs although.

At the moment I don't have enough space left on my hd to try to
reproduce the error.
