Bug Description
When having a system with (MBR style) already 4 primary partitions, the installer will not offer the option to create new partitions.
Although this is correct behavior, the unexperienced users should get some kind of hint why they can not create a new partition.
(Ideally there should be an description where to find help to be able to change one primary partition to an extended one containing logical partitions without data loss)
