Can I use Disk Druid to create a default partition layout?

Resolving The Problem

Can I use Disk Druid to create a default partition layout?No default partition layout is shown when you select Disk Druid to manually partition your disk. It forces you to create the partitions and you cannot proceed until you create a root partition. You must supply Disk Druid with the correct partition layout. We recommend that the user auto-partitions their disk instead of using Disk Druid. If a user chooses to use Disk Druid, they must (at the very minimum) create the following partitions:
 

Partition Mountpoint Filesystem Type Minimum partition size
Root / Ext3 6 GB
Swap None Swap 1 GB
Export /state/partition1 Ext3 Rest of disk
