It may be that you are confused by the words "root file system" .
In Linux, this refers to the symbol " / " which is the "top" of the
file system. So, to define your root file system, enter / in the
relevant field of the partitioner.
All directories ("folders") in the system are sub-directories of /
For example,
/root /usr /home /media and so on.
There are no "drive letters" like " C ", as in Windows. All
filesystems
are defined under the root / directory.
...just guessing a bit, because the information you have given is very
sketchy...
