That is indeed confusing. The same with the "Abort" button. Does
it only abort the expert-partitioner, the mini-workflow or the
whole installation? You just don't know.

I would have made those mini-workflows popups/dialogs which do
not cover the whole screen. This would have two advantages: 1.)
The meaning of "Abort" and "Finish" would be clearer (at least I
think so) and 2. on big screen you could move the dialog to the
side and see e.g. the partition list at the same time.
