Comment 9 for bug 47055

I met this issue during install of Ubuntu 8.04.1 too. I don't like it, it creates trouble for other installations, for adding new partitions, etc. I was not prepared for this behavior and I was surprised. I think I see some reasons why extended partition is kept at minimum size but I think this should be only one option; default. User should be able to configure partitioner to create extended partition with minimum or maximum size. From my point of view, partitioner should ask user about size of extended partition (minimal maximal, custom size).
