Title:
  Ubiquity turned windows parition logial making it unbootable

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  I was installing sandwiched between 2 windows installs, the Windows
  install after the Ubuntu install got absorbed into the logical
  partition used for Ubuntu making it unbootable since afaik Windows
  can't boot from a logical one (or at least has a very fussy bootloader
  that will die the instant any changes occur).

  I don't know if its possible to have a non logical partition after a
  logical one, but in any case the installer should throw an error when
  an action could cause Windows to become a logical partition and
  therefore unbootable.
