Hi,
Ubuntu Feisty the same problem as described. My partition table is:
Disk /dev/hda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1255020482843+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/hda2 *2551494019197675 83 Linux

/dev/hda45047972837608133+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
