Public bug reported:
I have a 500 GB hard drive with WindowsXP already installed. With the
Released Ubuntu 7.04 CD inserted and the computer restarted the Ubuntu
installer is started. I answer the simple questions and wait for the
partitioner to offer to split the 500 GB drive and resize the
partitions. The partitioner only offers Guided using the entire 500 GB
hard drive for Ubuntu or manually partitioning the hard drive. The
partitioner only offers the solution of devoting my entire 500 GB drive
to Ubuntu. Previously the Beta version offered to split the 500 GB by
resizeing it into two partitions, one windows and one Ubuntu, and I
could select the size of each partition. I'm trying to get that
splitting of the hard drive to start with the released version. My
attempt to manually partition the drive into two partitions fails.
