Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

As seen in the attached screenshot, the Ubuntu partition has this text:
"Ubuntu
/dev/sda (ext4)
8.6 GB"

Why the "/dev/sda (ext4)"? It is not needed and can cause confusion for the average user.
Moreover, the "8.6 GB" bit is also not needed in this case, since Ubuntu will be the only system installed here.

I'll fix this in a bzr branch, but I first want input from developers and designers. So share your opinions :)
