Hi,

I have Partition Magic 1.0 and would like to create another
Primary partition on my HD.  I've currently got two Primary
partitions with Win95 and OS/2, and one extended partition with
two logical partitions.  I've tried creating free space with
Partition Magic, but FDISK (DOS) can't see the free space
and hence can't create a partition.  The Create Partition choice
on the Drives menu in OS/2 can see the free space but will only
create a logical partition.

Is there anyway I can create another Primary partition
without destroying my current setup?  If not does
Partition Magic 3.0 allow you to do this?

TIA,
Randy
