After messing up grub due to a conflicting windows installation, I decided to re-install my filesystem partition (home is separate).
On booting from a 9.10 disc, I found that the hardrive I wanted to install to was now invisible to the installing program, however, it was visible to Gparted from the same live CD.
I found this was not the case using a 9.04 disc, so I reinstalled from that and now have a working system.
The trouble is, the hardisk is STILL invisible to the the 9.10 installer (but not to Gparted), so I am going to have future upgrade problems if I want to do a clean install.
How can I make 9.10+ Ubuntus see the hardisk?
