how can i re-arrange all the partitions?

Asked by eileen_fong2001 in Linux Administration, Linux Setup, Ubuntu

Hi experts
I bought a laptop with Vista pre-installed. I've just installed Ubuntu8.04 and am quite happy with it. But the thing is that when installing Ubuntu, i wasn't able to create a separate partition for swap.
Then i used Qparted and resized my linux partition. The result is that i've now got 60GB space unused. I would like to create a partition for swap and a separate partition for /home
I tried to do that but got a warning saying that there can only be up to 4 primary partitions. is there anyway i can get around?

Thanks
