Re: [Bug 160900] Re: partition ignorance
Hello Paul Sadly I have no more info for you, because Ubuntu didn't last very long on my computer after this debacle. I managed to recover a fair bit, but also lost some stuff which I thought I had backed up (the backup turned out to be too old). The scenario was: Three physical drives in the same machine (all with 2 partitions. Drive two had two valid partitions (both Windows XP). The intended Ubuntu to install on the first (physical partition). For some time I couldn't get it to install, but after a while (using different choices during the install), I managed to to get a clean install. However, when I booted back into windows, the second (Windows XP) partitition had also been claimed by Ubuntu and overwritten part of it. In my books any OS should respect the partition table and refuse to overwrite another OS's partition. Clearly some work to do yet ;-) Paul Dufresne wrote: Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
