Question Need help with partioning x86_64 netinstall

Hello,

I'm trying to install F12 and fail at partioning. Here's my disk layout
Code:
root@oppa-labor:~# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x91fd91fd

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1               1        8286    66557263+   7  HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda2            8287       16700    67584000    7  HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda3   *       16700       25114    67584000   83  Linux
/dev/sda4           25115       60801   286655827+   5  Extended
/dev/sda5           25115       33746    69336508+  83  Linux
/dev/sda6           33747       42378    69336508+  83  Linux
/dev/sda7           42379       51010    69336508+  83  Linux
/dev/sda8           51011       59642    69336508+  83  Linux
/dev/sda9           59643       60801     9309636   82  Linux swap / Solaris
F12 should go to sda3 but the partioning tool does not list it and some other. 1,2,4,5 and 6 are displayed and some strange lvm_root and lvm_something. What's up with that lvm stuff ?

So, how do I get the partitioning tool to display all of my partitions and how to select /dev/sda3 for Fedora / ?

Happy weekend all,
Oppa

Do you use the custom partitioning option?

Thumbs up

Well....I thought I was...
I had checked the box at the bottom (~review partinioning..). Had to choose custom from drop down list at top. My bad.

Up and running in full beauty now.
Thank you !
