</div>Thanks Craig for the reply. I realised this after I sent the mail and<br>
am feeling stupid right now. So I guess nothing can be done without<br>
destroying one partition or is there any other way. Is there anyway<br>
that might allow me to add the new partition into the extended group.<br>
I know that this is not the support channel but since the thread has<br>
already reached this far, I am asking this question here.</blockquote><div><br>you can use "parted magic" live cd (recommended) or any other live cd wich has gparted on it (like system rescue cd) to resize the extended partition, this way the new partition will be type "logical", built inside the extended one.<br>
<br>but, of course, you'll better backup your data first.<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br>
