Partitioning-error during 6.06-install

[Robert Spanjaard]

I Just tried to install 6.06 on my notebook, which had two partitions when
I started: a Windows NTFS-partition of 72 GB with about 62 GB free, and a
FAT32-partition (probably for recovery) of 1.9 GB.

When I got to the partitioner, I selected to edit the partitions manually:
- Resize the Windows-partition to 15 GB (which would leave about 5 GB free
  on that partition)
- Use the free space for an ext3-partition of about 58 GB

Then I waited... GParted was happily squeezing the air out of Windows'
lungs, and everything seemed to go just fine.
But after a while, X server suddenly restarted. Or at least, that's what
it looked like. The screen went blank, switched to text-mode, and after a
while I got the GNOME startup-sequence again (panel, window-manager etc).
Linux did _not_ restart completely, it was just X and everything in it
AFAIK.

I restarted the installer (which had remembered my localisation- and
usersettings) and got to the manual partitioning again. The
Windows-partition was still reported as being 72 GB, but the used space
went from 10GB to 67 GB.

I decided to reboot into Windows, and see what had happened to all my free
space. After the partition-check, Windows booted, I opened explorer and...
saw a partition of 15 GB!

So now, I have Windows reporting 15 GB with 5 GB free, and GParted
reporting 72 GB, also with 5 GB free. How can I solve this problem?
