Public bug reported:
Lubuntu 18.10 Cosmic
In doing a manual install, I found out that if for a particular
partiton, one erases "(no mount point)" and enters a custom mount point,
that if one clicks on "OK" to finish editing the partition info, nothing
changes on screen, the mount point column for that partition remains
empty, and if one re-edits the partition, it again says: "(no mount
point)".
If one instead presses <Enter> after entering the custom mount point,
the mount point is then shown on the screen in the mount point column,
and re-editing the partition shows the custom mount point.
[By the way: it is by no means obvious that one can remove the "(no
mount point)" text and enter a custom mount point - one is presented
with a drop-down list of possible options: "/", etc., but I only thought
to try to erase the text and replace it with my own mount point because
I had been used to installing with gparted, and knew that I should be
able to do so, somehow...]
