I tried to partition using gparted one more time. Deleted the partition,
and created a new extended with logical under it. Gparted gave me an error
about not being able to find a byte location, if I recall correctly.

Thanks

  Won't install bootloader. I tried manually partitioning and applying
  in gparted first as it seemed the partition editor in the install
  wasn't doing anything. During hte install I chose the partitions I had
  created and started, install completes but can't install bootloader on
  any partition. Please email me if there is something I'm doing wrong.
