[Bug 366104] Re: [Jaunty] Install incorrectly reports no other OS on system

[Steven Pemberton]

Just to report that this really discourages me from doing work to report  
bugs.

I put quite a lot of work into reporting a bug, discovering what was going  
wrong.

Apparently no one does anything.

Ten years later I get a message that this version of the operating system  
is no longer supported, and to do more work if it's still a problem.

Won't I then just wait another ten years for a similar message?

I got several of these messages recently, and so I'm not in a very good  
mood I'm afraid.

Title:
  [Jaunty] Install incorrectly reports no other OS on system

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Install reports there are no other OSs on the machine, which is
  incorrect (Win XP is also installed).

  However, it still asks if I want to "install them side by side" , and
  warns that using the whole disk will delete Windows XP, so it *has*
  identified XP on the machine. (See attached image).
