Title:
  I'm trying to install a dual boot with Win7, and it's not letting me
  partition.

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I've got a Dell Inspiron 15. I've successfully installed Windows 7,
  but when I came to install Ubuntu 12.04LTS, I got to the partition
  section, and it freaked out: it refused to offer me option to
  partition the disk. In the end, I went into Windows and used it's
  partioner instead. I then tried again to install U12.04, and this time
  it gave me the option to install Ubuntu next to Windows - but then it
  ended up erroring, and refusing to go any further. That's when it
  asked me to supply you with this bug report.

  Pretty frustrated right now.
