Description
It is extremely difficult to create partitions of a specific size using the slider in DriveSetup. It would be much easier with a spinner.
Depends on ticket:6834

I wouldn't go as far as replacing here, but why not add a spinner, too? Some things like "full"/"half"/"quarter" sizes are much easier made with a slider. I would even argue that you rarely need the accuracy of a spinner, even though I would like to have one there, too.

There's already a text entry box. A spinner seems a rather useless addition. It should be sufficient to specify the size in the text box, as well as supporting the normal suffixes (k, M, G), etc.
(In #6834) Replying to leavengood:
Tickets #8056 and #8057 were created for that reason.
Sorry, I've not been successful in obsoleting anything on trac.
