Description of problem:
While performing a server install to an IDE hard drive, I allowed the 
installer to auto-partition the drive. At the package selection screen I 
selected all packages, and proceeded to the Install Packages screen. The 
installer informed me that the /usr partition was too small, so I went 
back to the partitions screen and increased the size of the /usr 
partition. I then went forward to the Install Packages screen, and the 
installer displayed the message:

"The kernel was unable to re-read the partition table on /tmp/hda (device 
or resource busy). This means that Linux knows nothing about any changes 
you have made. You should reboot before doing anything with /tmp/hda." 

After clicking "Ignore" a few times, the installer displayed the 
message "Error enabling swap device /dev/hda2" and I had to reboot.

How reproducible:
Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Perform a server installation with a /usr partiton that is too small 
(900MB is what the auto-partitioner gave me)
2. Select all packages at the package selection screen.
3. After being notified that the /usr partition is too small, go back and 
re-size it (I made it 2GB).
4. Proceed to the installation screen.
5. Installer should produce the error message described above - 
click "Ignore" a few times until the next one appears.
	

Actual Results:  Installation fails and the server must be rebooted.

Expected Results:  Installation does not fail after changing partition 
sizes.

Additional info:

Sometimes when I go back to resize the partition, I get a message 
saying "too many primary partitions" and the installer crashes, which is 
why I said I can only reproduce the error sometimes.
