Hi Michael,

Well, I considered that but the only upgrade available didn't mention
any fixes for problems of this sort and, as I say, it [this setup]
previously played nice with Ubuntu Server 10.04 and latterly with Debian
6, both of which used a Linux partitioning tool (I am guessing some
parted derivative) to set up the disk as part of the install process.
