Partition problem in Windows XP
I tried to install Ubuntu 9.0.1 from the live cd to a computer running Windows XP Pro with an 80G hard drive. I got to step 4 (partitioning the hard drive) and selected the option to split the drive into equal parts. I hit the forward button and a window popped up with a partitioning message (couldn't read it) that lasted about 2 seconds (looked like it went to 100% and then the installer stalled on step 5 (the Forward button remained greyed out). The computer gave no indication it was doing anything so after about an hour I hit the quit button. When I restarted the computer it went through chkdisk and then booted into XP but my hard drive has been reduced to 40G and I can't see another partition. How do I get Ubuntu to complete the installation or get my hard drive capacity back?
Thanks
Mike
