| yes, you only consumed two primary partitions ( minor 1 - primary
| and minor 2 - extended) and you have two more left. use fdisk of

i couldn't initially because the end point of minor 2 is already
the end point of the whole disk. that's why i needed to pull it
back to 12997.9, which i did, using parted. after which i used
fdisk to add another primary.
