I just realized something...

Say I want to create a single partition /stuff and put both /tmp and /var
onto it? How do I handle this in the Debian installer?

Another example... I want a /userdata partition and on this partition I want
/userdata/home ... How do I tell the installer to mount home at
/userdata/home ???
