Public bug reported:
While I was installing Gutsy (Live CD) (I tried both Tribe 5 AND Sept. 6/07
Daily Build) onto a partition I had just created with Parted Magic 1.8, the
installer wanted me to make a new partition table. I quit the installer. I did
a fdisk and parted and got the following output in gutsy.

Partition table entries are not in disk order
------------------------------------------------
For some reason feisty and gutsy detect different sizes for my drive, and gutsy
throws errors up saying that the partitions end outside the disk. So I can't
install gutsy. To fix it I would resize both those partitions that are going
outside the disk in gutsy. Gutsy seems to be the only distribution that gives
me this error so I think it's a bug.
