<DIV>> If you already had 4 primary partitions, then shrinking one doesn't
actually<BR>> help you - you actually need to _remove_ one, change it to an
extended<BR>> partition, and create logical partitions within it. imo,
it's easier to<BR>> create one primary for Windows (if you must...), one for
swap (not really<BR>> necessary that it be primary), and an extended
partition for everything<BR>> else - then split that however you want (mine's
actually an LVM).<BR>> -- <BR>> derek<BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Century Gothic" size=2>Thanks; is is possible to have a logical
partition outside of an extended partition? Or a primary partition within an
extended?</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
