I have a 15G primary partition #1 containing XP, 15G logical partition #2 containing empty space recovered from a previous Linux install, 15G primary partition #3 containing FreeBSD, and the rest of the disk unallocated. I think I already know the answer to my question but I wanted to ask to make certain. I would like to make partition #2 to also contain FreeBSD. But if I remember correctly there is no way to do such a thing without starting all over again in setting up the disk.
