Hi!

I recently got a laptop with a pre-installed vista. Since the partitioning
was super-stupid as usual, I used gparted to resize the windows partition to
create space for an ubuntu installation. The repartitioning and ubuntu
installation went smoothly. Ubuntu started up fine too. I switched to Vista
and that was running fine too so I thought things were fine.

However, the next time I booted the system, I got Grub error 22. I used the
Ubuntu live cd to boot the system. fdisk revealed that the new ubuntu
partitions were missing.

Is this a known issue? Is vista known to overwrite ext3 partitions or
something? Is there any way to avoid this?
