The partition type doesn't have to be AFS, it can be anything.

I think the installer is hardwired to only list partitions on ATA disks, 
but you should be able to give the path to any disk manually. I'll keep 
that in mind when I rewrite the installer.

Did you try rebooting and see if the partition you tried to create is 
there afterwards? Otherwise, please open a report in the bug tracker and 
post your kernel log.
