Here it is. For the record, I found an old hard drive from a G3 PowerMac and I used Darik's Boot & Nuke to remove all the data from the hard drive (indicated below as sdb1). In Ubuntu, I formatted the hard drive as ntfs using GParted. Then, I attempted to install Windows 7 Ultimate on that hard drive (sdb1) and when given the option to choose which hard drive I wanted to install Windows on, received a message saying that the installer could not find any partition on the hard drive I had selected. I am thinking it may be safer to just install Windows 7 on this new hard drive, but I'm running into these problems. Nevertheless, here is my readout:
