I'm trying to setup a dual boot system with Windows Vista 64 (already installed) and Ubuntu 10.10. I added a new drive which is identical to the one Vista is installed on. When I boot into the LiveCD I can see and mount the second drive and edit it in Gparted. However, when I use the installer it will only bring up the drive that already has Vista installed.
I've tried everything I know. I'm not sure if its a BIOS setting or something else I've missed.
I've also tried both the desktop and alternate amd64 installs with the same result.
