Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
When you are manually partitioning a HD and have installed four primary
partitions, right clicking on the free space causes an error, because
ubiquity is trying to install a fifth partition. A warning window comes
up telling you that you can only install four partitions.
What is going on, I think, is that right clicking and choosing "new"
invokes the partitioner with "primary" (the default) already chosen.
What should happen is that after the third primary partition, Ubuiquity
should make extended the default.
At any rate, the partitioner in Breezy handled this better: when you
used up your primary partitions, it automatically started logical ones.
