I have 1299 cylinders. As far as I can see, only 1268 are used. The rest was
supposed to be allocated to my swap. Fo some reason, it's not. Is it because
the second partition is an NTFS partition and because of that partition 5
should be of the same type? Here's the partition info again:
-> Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
-> /dev/hda1 1 277 2094088+ 6 FAT16
-> /dev/hda2 278 556 2109240 5 Extended
-> /dev/hda3 * 557 563 52920 83 Linux
-> /dev/hda4 564 1268 5329800 83 Linux
-> /dev/hda5 278 556 2109208+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
