I only tried the tool, not the manual method.  However, neither should 
be necessary if it had the proper functionality from the start.  Why are 
existing partitions ignored during install?

        This still doesn't resolve the root problem in that
        functionality that has existed for decades no longer exists. 
        Allowing for existing partitions should be part of the install.
