I recently encountered what It's 'imself describes, with an fairly
pristine (though ~5 month old) Ubuntu 10.04 install. The actual Windows
Vista and the recovery partition are reversed so that, in Grub, one must
select the entry labelled as “recovery” to start Windows properly.

sda1 holds actual Windows, recovery is a small partition at the other
side (sda5). Ubuntu sits in between the two and is the primary operating
system.

This on an HP dv9000 notebook. It isn't my computer so I won't be able
to provide much information, but there you are :)
