This is generally caused by a corrupt partition table.  Please post the
output of sudo fdisk -l, and sudo parted -l.

Title:
  ubiquity fails to identify partitions on internal hard drive

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Trying to dual boot the latest daily iso.

  Get to the manual partition page and it reckons that my 1TB hard drive
  is just free space. This hard drive has actually got a ~900GB
  partition for Windows 7 and it should have a ~50GB partition for free
  space that I was intending to install ubuntu onto.

  I have tried installing ubuntu twice and rebooted into windows (it's
  still fine) so it seems that ubiquity is just failing to see the
  partitions on the drive
