Hi this bug was filed against the wrong project. Sorry about that.

If you're still around or care, file it against Wubi should you
experience this behavior in newer releases.

Title:
  Wubi/Ubuntu fails to boot after install

Status in “app-install-data-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  ubuntu-8.10-desktop-amd64.iso(not the one in choose, I don't know did not work)
  I recently upgraded Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit to Vista Ultimate 64-bit. In the process I uninstalled wubi/Ubuntu 8.10. When I tried to reinstall, everything seem to work until the reboot. I had three choices:
  ------------------
  There are a total of 3 entries listed in the Vista Bootloader.
  Bootloader Timeout: 10 seconds.
  Default OS: Microsoft Windows Vista

  Entry #1

  Name:  Microsoft Windows Vista
  BCD ID:  {current}
  Drive:  C:\
  Bootloader Path:  \Windows\system32\winload.exe
  Windows Directory:  \Windows

  Entry #2

  Name:  HP Recovery Manager
  BCD ID:  {572bcd55-ffa7-11d9-aae2-0007e994107d}
  Drive: [D:]\sources\boot.wim
  Bootloader Path:  \windows\system32\boot\winload.exe
  Windows Directory:  \windows

  Entry #3

  Name:  Ubuntu
  BCD ID:  {091dc1bf-bfec-11dd-829d-001e8c362311}
  Drive:  C:\
  Bootloader Path:  \ubuntu\winboot\wubildr.mbr
  -----------------------------

  Entry #1 boots to Vista, but Entry # 3 just sits there.
  When   try to run  C:\ubuntu\winboot\wubildr.exe, I get the following message:
  This version of the file is not compatible with he version of Windows you're running. etc.
  I am giving up for now as I've tried it several times.
