Hi,
I also faced the same problem when I tried installing
PCQ Linux 7.1. But tried with fdisk and it was all OK.
If you are using Disk Druid then please try using
fdisk.
Choose 'n' for creating new partition, 'p' for
printing the partition table and 'm' for help and rest
all options you can see from the help screen.
Just create two partitions (atleast), one for swap and
one for root(/). The partition type should be 82 for
SWAP and 83 for Linux native (/) and the save the
partition table and quit.
Regards.

PS:- Mine is a 40 GB HDD, with Windows on first 20GB,
Linux Swap partition on next 128MB and rest all for
other Linux partitions.
