Re: Extended Partitions

[B.Hakvoort]

Hi,

This is perfectly possible. As long as no logicals are mounted you can
resize (and therefore move) the extended partition.
However, the logicals will not be moved/resized, you need to do this
yourself (afaik).

btw, now we're on the subject of extended partitions. Does anyone know
what's the max amount of logicals an extended partition can hold? I've
searched a bit and the numbers vary from 15 to 256 .... ;)
