4.3R sysinstall
>Description:
4.3R sysinstall fails to create swap partition on second run
>How-To-Repeat:
New installation > Custom install (new HD) >
Create partition > Create labels (MISSING SWAP) > 
Commit installation > Error appears "No swap etc" >
Relabel drive (do not Write/commit in the Label editor) > 
Commit installation

Either 
a) The label changes made the second time were not written to disk, or
b) The swap partition was not written to disk the second time,
despite me specifying it.

Thanks !!
