When I clicked on review partitioning layout, I was given an option to
click a plus sign and add partitions.  I've only worked with a VM so far,
so I used the entire disk, but I was able to customize its formatting--I
only tried to do the very simple, one swap partition and a big root
partition, but, on TC3, it's working for me.
