The install goes on to whichever partition gets used as "/". Tell one of these partitions that you want to mount /. If you are manually partitioning, I recommend 10GB for /, <whatever>GB for /home, and you can make swap on a partition if you want to (2xRAM seems to be reasonable) or just make swap from files on a filesystem later if you need it. -jim
