creating a bfs partition should format it to bfs at the same time

Drive Setup is a real important first step into Haiku. Fortunately this user made a video out of it. It is therefor a gift to have and to do it much better now...

Formatting a drive to run Haiku on it should be almost automatic. Something like use this drive for Haiku and install it autocratically Creating and formatting a drive to BFS and set it active by default! +1
