That's an equally confusing bug report.:)  Could you please state
precisely what steps you took and what results you saw? This is more
useful and reliable than just saying what you think happened, because
part of the agreed-upon problem here is that not everyone is clear on
exactly what is actually happening in custom part.

-I checked "I don't need help; let me customize disk partitioning."
-Clicked on "Reclaim space" button.
-Clicked on plus button on existing F18 installation.
-Clicked on the "Boot" 500MB partition.
-Clicked on "Customize..."
-Clicked on "Reformat"
-Clicked on "Apply Changes"

At this point my "Boot" partition disappears.

-Click on plus button on new F18 installation.
-Click on "ext4 500MB" partition.
-Type in "/boot" into Mount Point.
-Click "Apply Changes"

At this point a "Boot 500MB" partition is added, but the old "ext4 500MB" partition line is still displayed.

1) The logic behind the steps required to entire custom partitioning is wordy. It should be a simple step of asking the user "Do it for me!" or "Let me do it!" and not a couple paragraphs of text no one will read.

2) The "Customize..." expander is frivolous. There is an extensive amount of empty UI space. There is no need to have an expander for the "Customize..." area. It should always be displayed as we are in Custom Partitioning to begin with.
