Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
I was installing ubuntu 10.10 64 bit edition via a USB stick, during the installation it gave me the option to install it "along side another OS" (my main hard drive is a 500 Gig that is partitioned into two 250 Gig partitions one of which had windows 7 and the other was left for the ubuntu installation). After it finished the installation it had one 500 Gig partition for ubuntu and had reformatted the whole drive to EXT4 completly wipeing out my window 7 partition
