Hi. I have a hard drive with ext2 (primary), swap (logical), and NTFS (primary) partitions. It's a large drive with a lot of unused space. I want to carve up the remaining space into several partititions, but cfdisk only offers to make one last primary partition, then there are no more partitions available.
Why can't I make the fourth partition an extended partition and put as many logical partitions there as I want? Should the NTFS partition have been created as a logical partition rather than as a primary? I don't want to delete that partition and reinstall Windows. Can I convert it into a logical partition without destroying it? Thanks, Robin
