I dont know if this applies or not, but when i was installing RH 5.0 there was
a 5 partition limit set somewhere.  I had 3 win partitions, and the diskdroid
for rh wouldnt allow me to make any more partitions past five on my HD.  I
dont have any idea if this is a set limit for my HD or bios or what, so i
ended up having to erase one of my win partitions to fit linux.
