Nope.
It means you have unallocated space. It is
*not* (currently) available.
Delete a partition - or two or three.
The partition table can only hold 4 entries - guess how many you have. A construct called an extended partition was later devised to overcome this limitation. One of the 4 primary entries can be an extended partition, within which can be allocated logical partitions. As many as you want - within limits.
Best for you might be to backup your hda4 then delete it, then allocate all the space as an extended, then start allocating partitions and restoring.
All this done most easily from something like Knoppix.
Personally I'd remove everything except hda1 (presumably /boot) and move the lot into logical partitions.
