Bug Description
Alpha 4, Desktop CD
In the manual partitioning mode while trying just to assign proper mount points of "/" and "/home" to the already existing partitions out of sda1, sda2 (swap), sda3 (populated with old /home data) I encountered the following problem:
* while edit partition and assigning mount point the size by default is set to 0 (expected: current partition size)
* putting in exactly the same number as already indicated in the partitioner resulted for me in the resize action anyway

I can't confirm the first issue, but when setting "/" to a partition that already existed, it did give me a a resize message saying it must do that before anything else, and that it could take awhile. I was confused and just hit "Go back", and it didn't do the resize but kept my other settings. I then proceeded with the installation and everything went fine.
