Title:
  Partitions are not recognized by installation process

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Software: Ubuntu 6.10

  The installer does not recognize the partitions on my hd.
  It recognizes my hd as whole free space... Firstly i thought the problem was the high fragmentation of the hd but after a good defrag, the problem doesn't solve. So i tryed to check the partition table of the hd, but no errors were found (only some duplicated links: fixed). I retryed but unsuccessfully.
  I still can't see partitions during the install, so i can't install ubuntu. (i've tryied the live cd: the best distro ever! I love it!) Ah, when i tryied mandrake 10.0, it didn't have this problem, it recognized the space used by Windows correctly... i don't understand why.
  I can reproduce this problem every time.
  I'll be happy to give more infos, if needed!
