In this video a user is very confused by DriveSetup and runs into all
sorts of issues with it.

Here are some of the issues I spotted:
* <empty or unknown> should probably be renamed to Unallocated.
* creating a bfs partition should format it to bfs at the same time
* when creating a partition Active partition flag is not saved
(https://youtu.be/2jdmcLHU3Vw)
* it is not clear that "(Be File System)" in File system column means type
and not actual file system.
* creating a partition doesn't show "Active partition" checkbox
(https://youtu.be/2jdmcLHU3Vw?t=493)
* Intel Partition Map disappeared after reboot and became GPT instead
(https://youtu.be/2jdmcLHU3Vw?t=1055)
* creating Partition Map recovered previous partitions instead of creating
new layout (https://youtu.be/2jdmcLHU3Vw?t=1109)
* don't disable Format menu if a volume is mounted but can be unmounted
