Today I tried booting the laptop with Knoppix 5.0.1 (kernel 2.6.17); same results: Knoppix desktop shows icons for all my existing partitions; but when I try to install it to the hard disk, the partitioner (qtparted) does not detect any existing partition, and shows the disk as fully unallocated. This looks like lack of support for this type of disk at the kernel level. :(
