Hi all,
I have one big problem. I bought a new laptop (http://shop.lenovo.com/seind/se/en/learn/products/laptops/ideapad/v-series/v570/)

there were pre-installed Windows 7, 64bit. So I installed it and it was working. but then I decided to install Ubuntu 11.10 64bit. When I restarted computer, it was impossible to boot with ubuntu. So I erased whole disk with everything (include windows) and tried to install it as clean installation.
But now, I have troubles to boot to ubuntu again. I reinstalled it (repartition and reformat) dozen of times, but without success.
Boot from USB stick and run ubuntu live is ok. also installation is ok. everything works fine. But after installation I cannot boot to ubuntu.

Do you have some suggestion what can be wrong? I'm out of ideas..

I saw only one problem during installation. When I was trying to repartition drive it threw this error:
WARNING: The partition is misaligned by 3072 bytes. This may result in very poor performance. Repartitioning is suggested.

But this error is still there. Also after repartitioning.
