149GB hd from factory in my Lenovo SL400. Vista's Disk Management snap-
in shows this partitioning for Disk 0:
Letter Volume Size Status
-- ----------- ------ -------------------------------------------
S: SERVICE003 1004 MiB Healthy (System, Active, Primary
Partiion)
C: SW_Preload 135 GiB Healthy (Boot, Crash Dump, Primary
Partition)
unallocated 10 GiB recovered from C: w/ Disk Mgt snap-in & by
shrinking Q: w/ EASUS Part. Mgr.
Q: Lenovo 6 GiB Healthy (Primary Partition)
It's my intent to install a Linux (eLive? Kubuntu? pcE17OS 2nd Ed.?
Dislike GNOME, fer sure) and I've been given to understand there's a
maximum of four (4) Primary Partitions on a hard drive, so how do I
overcome that? With extended partitions? Linux wants two partitions
(well, three, but since I have 2GB RAM, I think Linux will do OK sans
swap).
Your on-topic responses are truly appreciated.
