I think it somehow fucked the repartitioning up, so Windows thought it had the whole 80GB to play with. I have Vector Linux installed on a separate hardrive and I didn't modify the MBR on my main hard disk, instead of having a crappy menu when I start my PC, I just change the boot order on the bios to boot the slave before master and vice versa.

Same here. I have BSD on a seperate hard drive. If I press ESC during the POST, my BIOS gives me a boot menu.

Looks like I have to reinstall Ubuntu tomorrow.
The thing I miss most is my bookmarks.html :( fs.

You might want to try this extension for firefox. I found it a few weeks ago. I have synchronized bookmarks on both my XP/FreeBSD partitions at home, and on my two PC's at work. It works like a dream.

Synch kicks much ass.
