Actually the Lib writes down the hibernation-info at the end of the 8GB
partition (just before the BIOS recognition ends). The rest (4GB) is only
accessible because of the IBM-DM.
Weesco gave me the hint to use the dm with the option /M. Now it allows me
manual configuration.
Before getting that hint I tried to reconfigure the logical drives with
fdisk.... and it worked somehow. But any other partitioning program will tell
me that the extended partition is corrupted (this is where I made the changes
with FDISK).
Any partitioning prog seems to have problems when the disk is only completely
accessible with IBM-DM.
So I think I am just gonna leave it the way it is (partioned with fdisk)
until it starts making trouble.
Anyway thanks for considering my question...
Regards
Olaf
