The bug is still there in RC2. On a related issue if I tell diskdrake to mount
my NTFS partition it wants to format it by default. This is obviously easily
avoidable but could cause problems for newbies if they just accept defaults.

When installing RC1, and after completing the installation, diskdrake thought that 
/dev/hda1 was 
"Hidden IFS (e.g. HPFS)", and generated a fstab that would not allow the partition to 
be 
mounted.  By selecting NTFS in the fstab, the partition would mount and work properly. 
 
There was some discussion about NTFS being detected as HPFS before on the cooker list. 
 
This appaears to be neither detecting as NTFS or HPFS, but as some variant of HPFS.  
Since 
Windows XP generated the partition in question, this may be an issue for many first 
time users.
