Re: [LI] Re: Partitioning : No free primary

["Shanker R Swaminathan" <CseWhiz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can have upto 4 partitions in your primary partition. If you need more
logical drives , make an extended partition in the primary partition and
make logical drives in that. If you run out of partition entries , you
_will_  get errors. This entire primary /extended partition rigamole is an
artefact of Dos days.
