Re: Disk partition problem
Hi All!
I have a few words to say on this, and then a question:
Simply put, I have actually created 2 primary + 2 extended partitions using
Linux fdisk. Inside each extended, I created 2 more partitions and had a
structure like this:
/dev/sda1 Linux /
/dev/sda2 DOS C:\
/dev/sda3 Extended
/dev/sda5 swap
/dev/sda6 DOS D:\
/dev/sda4 Extended
/dev/sda7 Linux /usr
/dev/sda8 Linux /home/users
Linux had no problem with that at all. DOS didn't mind as long as D: remained
inside the first extended, and DOS Fdisk would not list anything in the other
extended partitions...
My question is this: Ira said:

How do you make more than 4 partitions in a single extended?
