Hello everyone,

I am trying to install Ubuntu 9.10 on my laptop and have a problem with specifying the partitions. I used to have Windows Vista on my machine until a while ago that I made a new partition through Windows and installed Ubuntu 8.10 on it. However, now that I want to install ubuntu 9.10 on the same drive, The installer only specifies the whole hard disk capacity as one drive. Of course I have tried the manual installation and it just does not locate mycurrent ubuntu drive. Has anybody has this problem or can help with this?

I appreciate any help in advance.
