The way i got around this is, i made the rquisite partitions with the 6.0
cd. After the partition table was wriiten, i took the 6.0 out and put in
the 6.2 and allocated the mount points to the partitions i already made.
About paritions, apart from / and swap i would strongly suggest to keep
atleast a /home partition.
