    When i got my Aspire 4920 Machine, Win Vista Home Premium was loaded and some benificial acer utilities were loaded. There are four primary partitions:
    1. C Drive containing Windows Vista
    2. D Drive Containig Nothing
    3. 9.77GB EISA Config. Drive
    4. Again another 3.00GB EISA Config. Drive

    Now, the problem is that i need to install Linux also on my machine, for this i needed to make a new partition, but i can't! Because there are already four primary partitions. Kindly guide me what these two partitions(EISA Config. partotions) are containg, and can be merged so that i can get a slot to make another primary partition. A quick response will realy take me out of this problem and i will be able to start my final project.
    Waiting for your response...
    Thanx in advance!
