Hi guys,
I am helping the Wubi team ( Windows Ubuntu installer ) and we found a
problem when formatting a image located at the ntfs partition using a
loop device. It freezes as waiting for the IO response. But this
process cannot be closed. All other access to the ntfs partition stays
blocked waiting for and can be closed with ctrl+c.
The image was created using dd and we are trying to format using mkfs.ext3.
Only a few machines can reproduce the problem. My machine is an example.
See here more info:

We are using the kernel 2.6.20 (the one used by ubuntu feisty) and the
packages from the feisty too. I tested the 1.516 version too.
I dont know if i explained what was needed. Feel free to ask anything.
Thanks by the project! You are making a good work.
