cfdisk and extended primary option (0x05)

[|enouf|]

1. I asked for cfdisk output - not parted
2. I asked which disk .....both, you say ? ok - HDD #2 already has too many primary partitions, but if you answer #1, i may have a better answer ..*if* you tell me "what" it looked like "before" system commander

I will be glad to do that, But if I want to learn how to create an extended partition, do I need to provide the output ?

3. Yes !

i have no idea which version of knoppix you are using ....

'knoppix 1' will boot to kernel 2.4 at runlevel1 - text mode, no GUI, logged in as root
'knoppix26 1' will boot to kernel 2.6 at runlevel1 - text mode, no GUI, logged in as root
