"Create Partition Setup"
so that you can choose
"Custom Partitioning (for experts)":
And you land in exactly "Expert Partitioner" after that. So you could just spare extra mouse click.
wrong (just tested on 42.3)
"expert partitioner" gives you the proposed config as default and you have to remove it, when the other way gives you a blank disk
Strictly speaking the other way starts with whatever is currently on disk, so unless you happen to have completely blank disk there is not much difference in term of extra works.
Anyway, the point is that "Expert Partitioner" is not "misnomer" - you just get different initial setup depending on how you got there. And if the only problem was swap size, going to Expert Partitioner and simply resizing two volumes still takes less mouse clicks than starting from scratch.
But sure, there are a lot of ways to skin proverbial cat ...
Maybe for some people. The thread's OP was not able to get where he wanted to be that way, and I, who always fully partitions in advance of beginning any installation, never have, at least, not in the past 8-10 years. -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.
