	Hmm - I'm a little wary about confusing users further.
        I'd imagine those who use that config are most likely to
        use 'custom' setup anyway.

	(Now I'm about to suggest something that will probably being
	even more confusing for naive users :)

        How about:

                [a] Generate disklabel based on below
                [b] Install with X          [no]
                [c] Separate /usr partition [no]
                [d] Separate /var partition [no]
                [e] Enter custom values

        That gives eight different ways (2*2*2)

	We're probably getting too complicated here - feedback
	still welcomed...
