installation - Trouble with Dual Booting Windows 8 and Ubuntu 13.04

So I've been trying to get a dual boot set up. The problem is that Ubuntu doesn't detect Windows 8 during installation making my only options erase the whole drive or partition manually.



I sectioned off about half the drive (350gb), but whenever I tell it to use that portion it tells me it has no root driver.



So my issue could probably be fixed two ways:
1) help me get Ubuntu to recognize that the system already has an OS.
or
2) help me figure out why it isn't using the 350gb to partition.



thanks!
