Install Wizard 'Looks Too Complicated'

[Shentino]

One of my pet peeves with the installer is how long it takes to detect the
partitioning...and redetect it every...single...operation...so...slowly.

My suggestion is that GParted be used to handle this.  In fact I often use
that to do the partitioning BEFORE I do the installer because I don't want
to slog through it.
