Hi, I didn't try that yet but when I start parted I do see something that might be of interest to the whole partitioning problem during the installation, making the assumption that pyparted is a frontend for parted. parted doesn't show sdb3 as a partition, this will become problamatic when you create more than 2 partitions I assume..
