Hi,
I accidentally only have 1 linux partition, /dev/hde1
For some reason DiskDrake didn't allow me to rearrange that partition during 
the install, I chose expert install and the "Auto Allocate" option in 
DiskDrake just gave me an error message [forgot what it was] . And now I'd 
like to introduce /swap and /home partitions.
Can you provide me with any help on that? Can diskdrake do it now after the 
install or would I have to use fdisk (!!!) or buy PartitionMagic?

Thanks,

Narfi.

For the record:
I have 2 hard drives,  /dev/hda and /dev/hde and fdisk -l gives:

Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1650 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
 
   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1   *         1      1535  12329856    c  Win95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/hda2          1536      1650    923737+   f  Win95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/hda5          1536      1650    923706    b  Win95 FAT32
 
Disk /dev/hde: 16 heads, 63 sectors, 77545 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 bytes
 
   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hde1   *         1     38790  19550128+  83  Linux
/dev/hde2         38791     77543  19531260    f  Win95 Ext'd (LBA)
Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary:
     phys=(1023, 7, 63) should be (1023, 15, 63)
/dev/hde5         38791     77543  19531228+   b  Win95 FAT32
