Title:
  specify sizes in human readable format (e.g., 1K 234M 2G)

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When doing manual partitioning, partition sizes are specified in MB
  (the text says so). It would be far clearer if after the number there
  was a selection button where one could specify the units (Megabytes,
  Gigabytes, Terabytes etc).

  That is, instead of:

  New partition size in megabytes (100000 bytes): 10

  it would say:

  New partition size: 10 [Megabytes>]

  and the [Megabytes>] is clickable.
