I understand about half of what is being said, but I thought all would find this interesting. My harddrive, a WD 1T SATAIII 64MB 7200rpm, was first installed with Windows 7. (Gigabyte motherboard) I used vmware to try a few linux distributions. I settled on Ubuntu. I put in the live Ubuntu 10.04.1 disk and tried to install it but my "prepare partition" screen was blank. fdisk -l returned nothing. Gparted saw nothing. I rebooted wtih Gparted live, it saw nothing. I typed sudo testdisk and it saw a very small partition (640MB) and stated the write access was blocked. I reformatted with windows XP to NTFS, tried it again... same crap. I tried booting without dmraid and then uninstalled dmraid once booted (complete uninstall), and same thing: gparted could not see my partition. I moved my SATAIII drive to a SATAII plugin... no problem. Ubuntu is now loading....?
