I've been told that both of them are on LiveCD anyway. So the issue is which 
one do we explain in the Installation Guide. Let's look at it this way. Does 
cfdisk miss any feature required for installtion? I don't think so. So it 
would be much nicer to the user to explain him how to use cfdisk - an easy 
tool. If, however, there is work he wonts to do with fdisk - fair enough 
noone forbids it.
