You can only have four primary partitions, but quite
a few extended on one primary. sda5 and so on are on the 2nd primary.
(Windows likes a primary--I don't know how it would take to an
extended. It also likes to be first.)

Thanks Doug,
Windows xp drive is not in my laptop but in my desk drawer.
I am looking at the responses so far.
Will decide what to do in a few days.

As you may have noticed, I mislabeled the last 2--sda1is XP, sda10 is Ubuntu. Sorry.
