i got a dual boot system working fine with win2k and rh7.2 , but i want to install freebsd now.

Code:

/dev/hda1         win2k
/dev/hda2         /boot
/dev/hda3         (extended)
      /dev/hda5   /
/dev/hda4         /swap

ok .. so i've used my 4 primary partitions.. so how the heck do i install another o/s now? i want to install freebsd, but i need 2 more primary partitions.

i've tried to install freebsd, .. i created the partitions in fdisk, but then i get errors when it actualy tries to install.

do i just need another hard drive?
