I installed Ubuntu 10.4 using Wubi on a Windows 7 x64 on the first partion that is NTFS and it's using BitLocker and it does fail to load.

Is it Wubi incompatible with BitLocker or there is a way to configure the system without removing BitLocker and to make it work?

Currently when I try to load Ubuntu I get No wbildr error message.
