Title:
  [jaunty] ubiquity turns swap partition into /home, /var or /usr

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  If one selects manual partitioning in the installation procedure of
  Ubuntu from the Live CD, Ubiquity transforms the selected swap
  partition into a /home partition (or /var, /usr if a /home partition
  already exists).

  Steps to reproduce:
  - Run Ubuntu 9.04's iso in a Virtualbox with a virtual harddisk.
  - When installing, choose manual partitioning.
  - Click "New partition table", and accept the warning.
  - Create a new ext3 partition in the free space taking up about 90% of the space, mount point /
  - In the free space that's left, create a swap partition. It automatically gets transformed to /home

  Running Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope Alpha 2 in Virtualbox OSE 2.0.4 ,
  i386.
