Well, in my opinion, if ease of use was their goal, then they missed
it by a mile. Particularly in the disk partitioning section, they leave
you to stumble around trying to figure out how to step thru it with
no guidance. for example (from memory), you go to the disk partitioning
page and make your selectioins, then what do you do? there are choices,
and not all of them are the correct next step. At least some of the time,
the proper thing to do seems to be to click "done", as non-intuitive as
that seems, since you're obviously NOT done yet..., especially if you
want to reclaim previously used space.
At least the old Anaconda guided you thru it step by step.
