Oh, one more thing: Windows is fussy about the ESP; if it's FAT16,
Windows won't accept it as a valid ESP (although it displays as one in
the partitioning screen), and will insist on creating a new FAT32 ESP.
It will then get confused and be unable to complete its own
installation. Thus, if you install Ubuntu first and then Windows to work
around this bug, Windows won't install properly unless you first back up
the ESP, create a new FAT32 filesystem on it, restore it, and fix your
/etc/fstab entries.
