Description of problem:
Currently, in the text installer, whenever I want to have existing partitions
mounted in the new installation, I have to choose Filesystem Options and Ok
before I can enter a mount-point for the disk.  In spite of the fact that the
window says it's an ext3 filesystem and that its data should be left unchanged,
it says a Mountpoint is not appropriate for that partition.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Choose disk druid as the partitioning method.
2.Edit the root partition of a former installation


Actual Results:  It won't let you enter a mount-point immediately.

Expected Results:  IMHO, it should.
