I strongly encourage you to use a live ISO, rather than the standard installer (which is what it sounds like you actually have). The live ISOs use a different installer, called Calamares, which has a true GUI partitioning option which is much easier to use than the semi-graphical tools in the standard installer. Or you can install GParted and use that. If you go the live ISO route, do not enable autologin during installation. A bug will mess up your group ID assignments (if you don't know what that means, just take my word for it.) If you want autologin, it's easily enabled post-installation without triggering the bug.
