When using Disk Druid during the partition of installation,
The following is what I saw on the screen:

         Current Drive Partition

Mount Point     Device          Requested       Actual
                hda1            1013M           1013M    Dos 16-bit>=32
   /            hda3              61M             61M    Linux native
                hda4              31M             31M    Linux swap
                hda5             250M            250M    Dos 16-bit>=32

Drive Summary

Drive           Geom[C/H/S]     Total   Used    Free
hda             [1023/64/63]    2014M   1356M   658M

then, when I tried to add partition with the followings:
Mount point: /usr       Type Native
Size: 350M
Allowable Drives [*]hda
(The choice of "Type" available on the screen are:
Linux Swap, Native, Dos 16-bit<32M, Dos 16-bit >=32M)

The following message appears:
There are currently unallocated partitions present in the list of
requested partitions. The unallocated partitions are shown below, along
with the reason they were not allocated.

/usr       No free primary


On the other hand, if I use fdisk,
When I try to edit /dev/hda -Model ST32122A
and issue the command:
n
It just responds with:
No free sectors available.


What should I do?
yours,
cwlai.
