Question #77535 on Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/77535

actionparsnip proposed the following answer:
Thats way more convoluted than it needs to be

1. Boot XP CD and create the XP partition but do not use the whole disk, configure XP (Drivers apps etc0
2. Boot to Ubuntu CD and tell it to use the largest contiguous space (The space you did not use earlier). Use automaitic partitioning if you wish.

Done

Your method ivolves booting to Live CD, then XP, then back to Ubuntu.
What a faff.
