Hmm, not sure about the two primary partition thing, let me get back to you
on that. But if so, just create an extended partition with a logical drive
inside. Once the basic partitioning is done we can mess around with them
later in Partition Magic.

The reason you can't let PM create all the partitions is that if you need
FDisk under DOS to succesfully hide the space needed for the hibernation
partition. You are effectively using the Librettos BIOS limitations to help
you find the correct start of the hibernation area.

So, if you create the first two partitions in FDisk, leave 100Mb of space
then use PM to create the remaining partitions then you know that the
hibernation area remains unused.

Yes the hibernation area starts at around 8gb, what I said was *from* the
2gb area upto the beginning of the hibernation area... so just around 6gb.

Sorry if it's not crystal clear, having a bad afternoon.
