...which is exactly what I said - but in the sysinstall case, you may
want to ask some additional questions ("are you sure you want to proceed
without a swap partition?") or place some additional constraints (such
as "don't allow the user to mount something on top of /mnt or /rescue"),
and sysinstall needs to know the outcome.
