- C is a primary partition, D and E are in one extended partition. If
- you create a primary partition on the 2nd drive, it will become D, as
- drive letters are assigned for primary partitions first. If you create
- an extended partition on the 2nd drive, it will contain the drives F
- and ff. If you cant create an extended partition, create a primary
- partition of 1Meg first, create the logical partition next and remove
- the primary partition then. Maybe you can increase the size of your
- extended partition afterwards...
