Thank you for your enquiry. Yes, I have installed the latest Ubuntu release. No, I haven't had a recurrence of this issue myself. I have learnt my lesson.
I reported an installer issue so it was not likely to recur once I actually managed to install your distribution. I accept Colin Watson's assurance that the Debian installer does not rewrite the W2K boot.ini file. I would be very surprised if it did. However, I gave sufficient evidence that the Debian installer did something to cause something else to do so. An occurrence that was a mere annoyance to myself but something that could put a Newbie off Linux for life. Not worth your trouble fixing. Your loss, not mine. I won't bother you again. I do not repartition disks any more - I simply create a new virtual machine with a new virtual disk. When the LTS runs out on Hardy I'll have to replace it but I've plenty of time to find alternative.
