[Bug 1153888] Re: Install "Family" along side them - does not indicate which partition is which

[Len Ovens]

** Description changed:

  When installing ubuntu family alongside another OS (resizing) The dialog
  is confusing. It shows two partitions of two sizes which I can change,
  but it does not tell me which one is the old OS and which partition will
- be used by the new install. See included screen shot.
+ be used by the new install. See included screen shot. Even some text
+ saying "New Install" would help, but I think that the current partition
+ should also be labeled with the name of the OS.
