In order to have more partitions you have to make one of your primary partitions an extended partition. The extended partition can hold within it multiple logical partitions. Since you're at 4 primary partitions, you are unable to make any more. Change one to an extended partition (that takes up the rest of the disk) and create the rest of your needed partition as logical partitions. -- Jesse Keating RHCE MCSE (geek.j2solutions.net) Fedora Legacy Team (www.fedora.us/wiki/FedoraLegacy) Mondo DevTeam (www.mondorescue.org) GPG Public Key (geek.j2solutions.net/jkeating.j2solutions.pub) Was I helpful?
