Hi Ken. I'm not familiar with the free version of P.M., I've got 4.0; but a
few questions. First, when you created the free space, did you create an
extended partition to cover it? Did you create your Linux partitions as
logical partitions inside it? Try that, and make sure you designate the
correct filesystem for each logical partition you create, linux swap or
ext2. And when you install using Disk Druid, don't re-create the partitions,
just edit and set the mount points. Good luck!
