Hi all !
 Is it possible to have extended partitions of both linux
as well as  DOS on the same hard disk??
 I am trying to install PCQLinux 7.1
 
 Currently I have the following setup:
 C drive    DOS primary
 D and E drives   DOS logical within DOS extended
 Rest is Non-DOS (abt 3GB)
 
 Briefly,linux fdisk shows the following:
 Device   Boot   ID    System
 ------------------------------------
 hda1      *     b     Win95 FAT32
 hda2            5     Extended
 hda5            b     Win95 Fat32
 hda6            6     FAT16
 
 I must create at least 3 linux partitions: /, /boot , swap
(1024
 cylinders problem)
However, I can create only 2 more primary partitons (out of
 maximum
 of 4).
 But linux fdisk and Disk Druid do not allow me to create a
linux
 extended partition believing that an extended partiton
already exists
 (the DOS one)
 
What do I do ? Please help
