If you rearrange it so that it's /boot swap /, it puts / in an extended. Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 31 248976 83 Linux /dev/sda2 32 280 2000092+ 82 Linux swap /dev/sda3 281 2213 15526822+ f W95 Ext'd (LBA) /dev/sda5 281 2213 15526791 83 Linux It looks like it wants to throw stuff into extended when you have more than two. This isn't really a problem for me though, I'll just have to make up an answer when people ask me about it. :) -- Andrew Phillips Informatics Service Branch Environment Canada (902) 426-6262 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
