Fdisk worked perfectly on setting up the partitions to be the following:
 /dev/hda1  15 megs linux   => /boot
 /dev/hda2  64 megs swap
 /dev/hda3 2xx megs linux   => /
 /dev/hdb1 540 megs linux   => /usr
 /dev/hdc1 130 megs linux   => /var
 /dev/hdc2 230 megs linux   => /usr/src
 /dev/hdc3 140 megs linux   => /home

At the end of using fdisk, use "w" to write the partitions to disk like
normal. Installer takes me to screen to assign partitions to disk names,
which I did as above. Clicking on next tells me that I do not have enough
memory and that the swap partition is going to need to be created which
needs that the partition data needs to be written to disk. I click on OK.
Installer freezes. Move to ALT-F1 and get the following errors:

Traceback innermost last:
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/gty.py", line 120, in __call__
    ret = apply (self.func, a)
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 330 in nextClicked
    next = self.currentScreen.getNext ()
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/iw/rootpartition.py" line 79 in getNext
    if not self.checkSwap ()
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/iw/rootpartition.py" line 53 in checkSwap
    self.todo.ddruid.save()
  AttributeError: ddruid

Replicated twice.
