Description

### What Happened?

During setting up custom partitions it was noticed that four of the partitions and there labels were colored green. It was therefore not obvious which of the labels referred to which and extra care was needed to select the correct one for the new installation to avoid overwriting existing data.

### Steps to Reproduce

Observe the colors used in the custom partition dialog for a disk containing several partitions some of which contain existing installations and one of which is empty/unformatted which needs to be selected for the root of the new installation.

### Expected Behavior

The labels and colors should assist easy identification of the target partitions when there are several possible candidates. Maybe lines could be drawn from label to partition and/or use distinct coloring as the labels may not align with their partition.

### OS Version

7.x (Horus)
