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,

L
