Stupid. All the better to facilitate brain slips when setting mount
points on multiple disks with multiple partitions. It was better before,
with a different color for HPFS and FAT. Even better, each common type
should be a different color: FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, HPFS (it is different -
the installer could look at the partition boot record and see which is
which), and JFS (the senior IBM variety, not *nix).
