New question #78270 on Ubuntu:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/78270

Hi,

I'm having trouble installing v8.04 (64 bit). The problem is that during the 
installation process I'm not getting the option to create a new partition or 
delete an existing one. After the machine's booted from the install CD I take 
the 'Install Ubuntu' option and then choose the time zone and machine culture 
etc, but the problem is with partition edit prompt that appears after this 
which shows no existing partitions and the create and delete partition buttons 
and all greyed out meaning there's no way to continue. Anyone any ideas? I 
eventually gave up and installed 9.04 which correctly recognized that Vista was 
already on the machine and let me overwrite it, however when I now try to 
install 8.04 over 9.04 I get exactly the same issue with the installer failing 
to identify any existing partitions and give options to create/delete etc. Can 
anyone help?

Rob
