Boot Windows Recovery Console and run chkdsk /f from there.

I reformated!

On purpose, of course. Now, do I need two partitions? *can someone tell me what to make?*

Some how I made like 4 partitions, and I can't make a new partition table.......hmmm

Okay, these are the partitions I see in qtparted:
# Partition Type Status Size Used Space Start End Label
01 [/dev/hda1] [ext3] [Active] [74.37 GB] [3.75] [O.O3MB] [74.37GB] Primary
02 [/dev/hda3] [LInux-swap] [1.95GB] [0.00MB] [74.37GB] [76.37GB]
03 [/dev/hda-1] [Free] [7.8MB] [N/A] [76.32GB] [76.33GB]

*Notes, both Parts 02, 03 have no lable and are not active.

What can I do? I can't make a new partition table it says "A new partition table is not possible"

EDIT! I converted my ext3 part to reisefs, and now its installing!

I installed sucessfully. Thanx guys
