by mickeyboa from LinuxQuestions.org on (#54TQQ)
This is the Error message I get when trying to install Fedora-32 on a HP Laptop.
There are already 4 primary partitions on this device. This is the maximum number it's partitions table type can handle.
You cannot create or paste or restore a primary on it before you delete an existing one.
Partition table with Windows 7;
/dev/sda1 ntfs System 199.00mib 3609mib
/dev/sda2 ntfs 182.98gib 93.94gib
Unallocated unkown 300.63gib -----
/dev/sda3 ntfs Recovery 17.27gib 15.39gib
/dev/sda4 fat32 HP-TOOLS 103.34mib 9.86mib
The Unallocated space, I want to make Custom Partitions for Fedora32.
/dev/sda5 ext4 / 100.00gib
/dev/sda6 ext4 /home 180.00gib
/dev/sda7 swap remainder of free space
I do have a Gparted-live DVD.iso that I used for resizing and create Unallocated space.
