Yeah I meant Wubi. Try deleting them in windows since it sees all the partitions and can probably manipulate them without issue. I'm guessing that it was a windows install on that disk anyways to begin with. I've never seen a partition table that cfdisk couldn't mangle back together so all I can wish you really is luck. Hope you have a big external you can make images to just in case..... =)
