I write in English, because you did... However, your name
suggests that you might understand Danish as well, which
is (one of) the "standards" on this list. ;-)

My suggestion would be to try removing the partition you
created. The installation program will normally not use
partitions created with DOS/Windows fdisk.

I don't know if this will solve your problem, but it should
be worth the try...
