had posted this in another forum but I believe this is the better place since its RHEL4 update 4.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to go through Michael Jang's book "RHCE Study Guide", the book is based on RHEL3 but I'm working on RHEL4 (not sure if it matters for my question).

One of the exercises in the book (page 138) says "create an extended partition containing all the rest of the disk space and make it growable".

I don't see anywhere in the Disk Druid setup (during install time) that allows me to specify a new extended partition. Am I missing something here or reading this wrong? I don't see anyway to create a partition without a mount point which looks like he did from his chart on that page. The partition is marked "Extended". Any ideas or is this something that is different from RHEL3 to RHEL4?

thanks
