As a curiousity question.
Why are you formating the  partition beforehand, and not during the install?

If you format it during the install, what happens?

Also, how many partitions are labeled "/"?

I ask this because Ubuntu doesn't use labels for it's fstab, so it goes ahead 
and labels all it's / directories "/".  (At least it used to do this, if I'm 
wrong, please let me know when they changed.)
RedHat based distributions use labels in it's fstab, and if there are more than 
1, it get's confused.  But if during the install, it see's that there is 
already a partition labeled "/", then it will label it's paritition "/1" or 
"/12" and so forth.  I believe I have a partition labeled "/12345678".
So there is a possiblity, if you aren't letting the installer do anything with 
the partition, that it just isn't setup the way that a RedHat based distro likes.
