OK.  I've never used QTParted so I wasn't sure he could do that without
toasting all the partitions within the extended partition.  This way he
would only lose the data on hda9.

He will have to install QTParted from Universe, btw.  Hmm, I think that
I will also.

What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless,
whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism
or the holy name of liberty or democracy?  -  Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948)
