    The easy way is to make the other partitions as ext3 in Disk Druid,
after you boot up do a df to see what partitions they are on (for
instance, /dev/hda5), umount the partitions, do mkfs.xfs -f /dev/hda5
(or whatever the partition is), edit /etc/fstab and change the LABEL=
part for those partitions to be /dev/hda5 (or whatever), then mount the
partitions.
