Even if you do that, you're going to have to tell anaconda what 
partition to mount where.  And, unless you can tell it not to format the 
partitions there's no point in having GParted do it.  Up until now, 
there was a checkbox available that told anaconda to use the partition 
as is, but there are reports of people finding it grayed out and that's 
what we've been discussing.
