Bug Description
When installing with a manual config, Gnome Part Manager reports all drive sizes in bytes, rather than MB or GB - this will likely confuse many users.
No control buttons are visible on the interface, and only by double-clicking a partition can you modify, create, delete, etc.. the partitions. This operation is not explained anywhere and even then many options are missing.
Lastly, once partitions are established and you are offered the screen to select which partitions are to be formatted, the program would not allow me to select the swap part for formatting. The installer did format the swap partition anyway.

Do you mean the partition editor in the installer or did you actually run the Gnome partition editor from the menu? Was this Herd 3?
