Bug Description
I am installing Kubuntu 8.10rc1 on a laptop which has two OS installed: Windows Vista and OpenSUSE 11. OpenSUSE 11 has three partititions (swap, /home and /).
I want to use those three partititions for KUbuntu but there is no (easy) way to do this. I can resize the partitions, but the old OpenSUSE partitions take up a minimum of 5 gigabyte and cannot be removed completely.
The only way I found was to switch to "manuel" and then remove all three partitions only to recreate them.
I think this should be much simpler as many people would never dare to touch partitions manually.

OpenSuSe > Ubuntu is not a supported usecase AFAICT, but this still is a bug.
