Public bug reported:
Laptop is a Toshiba M55; I've now twice had this same exact thing occur.
I install successfully, it boots properly several times, and then after
4 or 5 successful boots, it all of a sudden comes up with a corrupted
/home partition. fsck won't touch it, due to inability to access the
partition, even when I use a rescue cd. It claims that the partition
size is incorrectly reported from the mbr. I'm unable to provide more
info from the system, as I wasn't able to ever get the thing all the way
back up. On attempting to reinstall ubuntu, the entire mbr appears to
have been corrupted, and I have to basically start from a fixmbr on the
XP side (dual boot), THEN I can continue re-partitioning my disk. I've
now tried this with bsd and several linux versions, and feisty is the
only one doing it.
