Your allmost there!
It's just asking if you would like to give your (new)volume a name (max 11 characters). If you don't want that, just press ENTER.

note: You can (also) give it a name áfter installing XP.

Yeah, just leave it blank unless you want to name your pet. If you have several partitions, it's handy to name them if you keep one type of data on it. i.e., a volume named MUSIC might just contain your downloaded mp3 files. You get the idea.
