Hi Bruce!

You are right!!! I changed some partitions with Acronis and apparently a  
new partition
table was written.

The next time I tried to install kubuntu everything was ok and 20 min  
later I was done!

Everything works without problems. Now the partiton table is where kubuntu  
looks for it.

Thank you!
