I don't know, did you?

This doesn't look good, but it also seems weird. If you had formatted
your entire disk, I would expect no traces of XP.

In your previous post of Jan. 25, you indicated you have a current
backup, so you have that as a fall back position if this turns out to be
the worst case, or a case which was outside of your intended target.

From Ubuntu, run these commands (for all hard disks in your system):

# fdisk -l /dev/hda
# fdisk -l /dev/hdb

How does the output correlate with the planned table that I suggested you
make here:
