Unhappy Ubuntu won't detect partitions...

I'm trying to install Ubuntu 7.10 and it will not detect any partitions on the hard drive. There isn't even an option to create a new partition. Help.

I saw a similar problem posted in the forums of ubuntuforums.org

The guy finally arrived at this solution:

"I solved my problem. I tried creating partitions with Acronis and the installer detected them. I'm running Ubuntu now."
