Ok no confusion - you do have an ext3 extension thats good, and you do have
a hard disk install

but your fdisk -l does not show the ext 3 partition

so may i suggest running fdisk il under sudo mode
"sudo fdisk -l" the password will be your login password

and
"du -h -T"

if you want to know moe about these command
run for command line "man foo"

where foo is any command you choose

I am thinking in a different way. I think Wubi installs Ubuntu under 
windows Filesystem if am not wrong. Someone please enlighten me too. I 
have never installed using Wubi.

You know what, am wondering if Ambika is running a live session

am working of a live simplymepis sessions and this is the error synaptic
gives me

*E: Unable to write to /var/cache/apt/
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.

W: Not using locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock*

which it think is the same as what she got

also all her other troubles seem caused by this as well.

So Ambika how are you running your ubuntu - is it from a cd / dvd or did you
install i l- what did you do to install it

Are you even sure that you have Ubuntu installed, and Abhishek Amberkar
Linux can't be installed on Windows filesystems you have to use Linux
filesystems only!!!
