Oops, I just realized that the terminology I used in my previous comment
might not be correct.  I think what's being written is the master boot
record (MBR), not the boot loader.  The Ubuntu installer most likely
does write the boot loader to the USB drive, but it overwrites the MBR
on the internal drive.  When I removed the internal drive and
reinstalled Gutsy, it did the right thing.  I then put the internal
drive back into the box and am able to boot into either Windows or
Ubuntu.
