This is my partition table:
Disk /dev/hda: 240 heads, 63 sectors, 1299 cylinders Units = cylinders of
15120 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 1 277 2094088+ 6 FAT16
/dev/hda2 278 556 2109240 5 Extended
/dev/hda3 * 557 563 52920 83 Linux
/dev/hda4 564 1268 5329800 83 Linux
/dev/hda5 278 556 2109208+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
I'm not sure what the deal is with partition 5. When I try to change it to
type swap with diskdrake, I get an error sayin thast the partion table is
full. So how do I get around that? Looks like I have no swap. I'm thinking:
1- there's a way to activate and make hda5 be a swap partition, which some
kind soul will tell me about.
2- I can't do it like this and I have to repartition the disk. Ugh!
3- I can't do it like this and I can merge hda5 back into hda4 and use a
swap file.
4- other?
Thanks,
