Description Michael Fulbright 2000-10-06 20:15:06 UTC
We give the user the option to NOT format partitions before the install
occurs.  We should do some sanity checking to make sure that the
partitions  which we need (like '/')tions actually contain valid file
systems. Currently users are not formatting required partitions, and the
installer fails with a traceback.
