Kaj again with something else i wanted to add.

When i first installed the 7.10 edgy it said that i had a 172gb hda now it lists it at 72gb hda could corruption or bad read write heads be the cause and if so would i need a new hdd.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that this is an older issue; is it still happening in the latest release 8.04 Hardy? If so, set the bug back to 'new' and leave a comment to signify that it is ready for triage / review. Otherwise if the issue has been fixed, please set the status to 'invalid'.
