Wheezy installer problem

After installing Wheezy 7.0 twice on different machines w/ no problems I can't get 7.1 to install in manual mode on my amd64 laptop. Everything is fine until I get to the point of writing partition changes to the disk. That's when I'm asked if I want to continue (yes) or return to the partitioner.
