I have 640 GB Hard Disc. The 'Disks' window shows only three
partitions.
Partition 1 Filesystem 639 GB
Partition 2 Extended.....1.1 GB
Partition 5 Swap 1.1 GB ...... ( Device .... /dev/sda5 ) Here No.5 is
not a typo. It is No.5
There is no star mark or arrow mark in the Extended partition diagram.
Also there is no black-tiny-square button for deactivating / unmounting
that portion either. (But other two portions have.)
Sometimes my system asks me to send error report. But the system can't
send error reports. Pop-up window says so. It happens almost once in two
days. I had this problem in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. It persists in my
upgraded 14.04 LTS version also. (Not a fresh installed). Actually
Ubuntu 14.04 welcomed me with a detected problem. Today it appeared
several times.
Is it a residue of my old OS (Windows)? Is it the root cause of the
above mentioned problem? Can I format it by selecting the 2nd Partition
only...using the gear button seen below? Or ..... Can I use the ' - '
(button for deleting partition) without affecting my system? Where did
the Partitions 3 & 4 go? (Please note... I have no other OS in my
system.)
The main thing I want is to delete the Extended Partition-2 if it is not
needed. Otherwise some commands at least, for rectifying the Partition
No.5 if it is a defect. I prefer a step by step command for this if it
is good.
