Bug Description

I have Samsung NP300V5A with Windows 7 installed. I wanted to install Kubuntu alongside Windows 7, but noticed that Ubiquity does not see my Windows installation and would like to install itself into my all disk (Please see screenshot here http://s3.postimage.org/yr10wn25t/IMG_20130207_203301.jpg).

The suggestion was disabling UEFI in BIOS, but this was already disabled. I also created a partition for Kubuntu (approx. 20gb), but this also did not solve the problem.

I asked on kubuntu-devel mailing list, but would like to report is as a bug to be checked.
I asked to askubuntu.com and got a reply to install Ubuntu and then installing Kubuntu desktop, or using WUBI. But maybe this is a hardware problem.

Last week, I tried the same thing with Ubuntu and ... It saw my Windows 7 installation and asked me if I would like to install it alongide...

If you need, I can download new alphas to test on my laptop.

Ok, now burned the ISO again and used my real hardware rather than using VirtualBox and here is what I got:

Is that what I am supposed to see?
