If expert mode is choosed for install, then : Suppose u have already 2 partitions say for NTs (/dev/hde1 & /dev/hde2). It is only allowed to have the amount of 4 patitions in each HD. Scenario in the graphical intallation of 7.1/7.2: Use the install tool (diskDrak ?) to created further primary partition intended for "/boot" (should be /dev/hde3). Further partition I wonna create are: swap / /tmp That the only alternative is to put them all inside the extended partition. So I created that with da graphical tool, fine, it is created. After that I can not create any other partition anymore, even though there are still free HD-space remind there. I mean can not created partition inside the extended poartition any more. This problem applied also if I create the extended partition first b4 the /boot last primary partition. So the dirty trick is: As I intended to do is to lay the partition(swap,/,/tmp)on the rest HD-space inside a single extended partition. So I created the whole rest partition as swap). It accept it only in this case, then go back there to resize the swap and create the other rest partitions beside the swap one after another). It got done, well. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo! Mail. http://personal.mail.yahoo.com/
