Thread: Problem Adding a Partition

-

hey guys, think terminal output explain it, having issues adding partition. deleted partition in place 1 reside , cannot add new one, , getting "can't have overlapping partitions".

gparted isn't option server install , working on ssh.

advice appreciated. trying rid of ntfs partition @ moment full of important data , not have drive large enough hold it. plan add partition in available space, make a physical volume , add created lvm.

code:
gnu parted 1.8.8  using /dev/sda  welcome gnu parted! type 'help' view list of commands.  (parted) select /dev/sdb                                                    using /dev/sdb  (parted) print                                                              model: ata st3200822a (scsi)  disk /dev/sdb: 200gb  sector size (logical/physical): 512b/512b  partition table: msdos    number  start   end     size    type      file system  flags   2      32.3kb  50.0gb  50.0gb  extended                       5      64.5kb  50.0gb  50.0gb  logical                lvm     1      50.0gb  120gb   70.1gb  primary   ntfs         boot     (parted) print free                                                         model: ata st3200822a (scsi)  disk /dev/sdb: 200gb  sector size (logical/physical): 512b/512b  partition table: msdos    number  start   end     size    type      file system  flags   2      32.3kb  50.0gb  50.0gb  extended                       5      64.5kb  50.0gb  50.0gb  logical                lvm     1      50.0gb  120gb   70.1gb  primary   ntfs         boot           120gb   200gb   79.9gb            free space            (parted) mkpart logical 120gb 200gb  error: can't have overlapping partitions.

why not use fdisk? if save configuration how , add partition fdisk, default fill remaining space (which seems want do). "fdisk /dev/sdb". "p" list partitions. "n" creates new one.
