  Give a choice of which drive to use for guided installs

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  I just tried to install the Intrepid RC.

  It took a while to start up the partitioning step, then ended up
  defaulting to resizing my sdb, which was already fully allocated as an
  NTFS file system.

  My sda was already pre-partitioned with an 80 GB ntfs partition (my
  existing Windows Vista installation) and an empty 80 GB ext3 partition
  that I wanted to install Ubuntu on.

  Firstly, I think it should have defaulted to sda.

  Secondly, all the quick choices all pertained to sdb, so I had to
  choose the final "Custom" (or "Manual"?) option; it should have made
  it easier to use sda if it wasn't the installer's guess.
