conversion primary->extended partition
Posted by Philipp Zehnder on January 27th, 2004


Hi

Is it possible to convert a primary partition to an extended partition without
losing data? I have four primary partitions now but I'd like to shrink one and
create an additional one. Therefore I'd like to keep just the first one as
primary and make the rest extended partitions. Are there any issues with that
(e.g. bootloader)?

Thanx,
Philipp
