Dear Sirs,

I Have downloaded the latest version of Ubuntu and I was trying to install it today ! but I was surprised when I reached to partitions step that Ubuntu doesn't see any operating system though I have Windows 7 ! + it doesn't give me any partition from the partitions which I have , it just give me an option to use the entire hard disk ! I worked with the live CD and it gave me that I have two partitions and I was able to access them ! so could you please help ?

I ran into a similar problem last night, I've got two hard drives, but it could only see one of them - the one I need to install to wasn't there. Apparently it was a bug in the RC version but it obviously hasn't been fixed!

I'm downloading the alternative installer, so I suggest you could try that too.

Well, the alternate installer worked for me! So I'm guessing it'll work for you too.

Did you try the alternative installer? Did that not work either?

Have you downloaded a fresh image today? Maybe some bugs were fixed in the installer?
