Dear All

My Debian server shows three primary partitions and one extended partition but when I try to add a new partition via fdisk for installing another os it is returning as 'no free sectors available' . It seems that I have a vast amount of free space on my disk so please let me know why I cannot add a partition ?

Thank you
