Installer Doesn't see ntfs partition


Okay so, I'm trying to dual-boot install ubuntu but when i start up the installer it doesn't see my ntfs windows 7 partiton (64 bit if that matters) but i can mount it in nautilus, WTF?

Also, the same exact thing happens in Pclinuxos and Sabayon.

To repeat. You have tried three live cd's and each one show's no entry when you run just mount command from shell?

However, when you view them graphically you can view them? Is that correct?

Hi,

Add the entry in fstab in Linux so that it gets mounted at the system startup itself
