Bug Description

My computer already have GNU/Linux installed. There 2 partitions that are /home and / (root). I want to install ubuntu-desktop 6.10 into my computer by preserving /home. So I choose manually edit partition table and assign mount point of each partition (surely, I assign /dev/hda4 as root). But the installer report me that "No root file system"
