AIUI, even people who know what they're doing have had trouble with 
partitioning in the new anaconda, especially with keeping partitions 
from being reformatted.  I'm not saying it can't be done, but that 
figuring out how to do it isn't anywhere near as clear as it was before. 
  Of course, I've not used it, so I'm only going by other people's reports.
