How to fix: Too many Primary Partitions ? G770

Hello,
I am trying to install PuppyLinuxSlacko.5.4 from a LiveUsb to a unallocated-Partition in my Lenovo-G770 Laptop, Win7 .
My G770 shows that I have two disks: C:\ and D:\ .
But the Using (Linux) GParted program shows there are 4-Primary Partitions already (see pic GParted01.png below) .
http://www.vmars316.com/ShowMe/GParted01.png
And when I try to Format the Unallocated Partition, I get an Error Msg (GParted02.png below) .

I've been told that to try and fix it in Linux is too risky .
I set up the unallocated 20gb partition.
Can I just merge it into the 29gb Extended Partition ?
If I did merge, How would I access it ? Which Partition is it an extension of ?
I am on thin ice here, and would rather fix the prob in Window7 , because I am brand new to Linux .
Here is the PartitionsDetail using AomeiPartitionAssistant -note the differences:
http://www.vmars316.com/ShowMe/AoemiPartitionWindows.png
Is there a way to tell what's in the partitions , especially the two 29gb partitions and the 14gb partition ?
Worst case: Is there a way to reset my 'Lenovo G770' computer back to factory settings under win7 ?
I think I'll add this Post to the Win7 Forum, since I hope to fix it via Win7 .

Recover/install Win7 onto multi-boot system - too many primary partitions?

I have a few questions: (first a background question, and then I'll get to the heart of the issue)
First, on a new laptop with factory installed Win7, I see there are 3 primary partitions - a 1.5GB "MBR-0", a ~10GB recovery partition, and the main installation partition. What is the 1.5GB one for, and what's on it? An MBR certainly doesn't need 1.5GB. Does Win7 create that, or is that something unique for Toshiba?
If I'm using a 3rd party boot-manager (BootitNG via an EMBR on its own partition), can I just wipe that 1.5GB partition? And, can the recovery installation be set up to create the Toshiba-Win7 recovery partition (and that 1.5GB one) as extended volumes within the Win7 primary partition, and not to make them as its own new primary partition?
And now to the main problem: (the gist of it is, how many partitions will the Win7 recovery disks create? and can I customize it?)
I have a new toshiba c650 laptop that came with Win7 installed. I created the one-time recovery DVDs first thing (it made 4 of them - Disk 1,2,3, and "64-bit environment").
I then wanted to set up a multi-boot system between Win7, and 2 instances of XP (one of which is a fresh install, the other being an image backup off a computer that died). I want each OS on its own primary partition, where each only sees/knows of itself. Also, I'll have one small, 50MB primary partition for the boot-manager program.
Of course, a drive can only have 4 primary partitions (if working with standard tools like fdisk, etc). To get around that (if needed), my boot-manager program will support as many primary partitions as I want, provided I use only it alone to manage/create my partitions.
Skipping the details, here's what I have now: I wiped the hard drive, except for that 1.5GB MBR-0 partitition, for now, till I find what it is. (Since XP doesn't recognize Win7, using XP's install cd would overwrite the factory Win7 installation, so I installed XP first on its own primary partition - and it's working fine). I have the boot manager program on a second primary partition. I then created 2 more primary partitions - one to place the XP-drive-image into, and one to install Win7. So, the entire drive is now fully utilized and partitioned.
But here's the problem...
starting with the boot manager program, I'm pointing to boot from the empty Win-7 partition, which upon finding no OS, will cue it to boot from the DVD, and go on about its installation business. So far so good. At this point, Win7 will only "see" the empty partition reserved for it. However, if Win7 tries to create an extra 1 or 2 new primary partitions (like how it came from the factory), the drive will end up with 6 primary partitions - not good. So, my XP partitions would likely get overwritten.
Having 6 primary partitions wouldn't be a problem, as long as I create/manage them only with the boot manager - but in this case the Win7 installation would likely create them during installation instead. If I pre-create those partitions (the 1.5GB one, and the 10GB one) with the boot manager, can I point Win7 during the installation to utilize those? How?
One more side note: When I'm in XP now, XP only "sees" it's own partition, but still senses that there's more room on the drive - it just considers it all as unallocated space. I'm guessing Win7 would do the same thing? And if it does, I'm worried it would start sticking its own new partitions there into what it "sees" as "unallocated space", even though my other partitions are there.
If you made it through this longwinded mess, thanks for what help you can provide! How should I get Win7 on there, without damaging the existing partitions?

Ok, so I finally got it all to work.
In case anyone else runs into this question where you have to use the Toshiba recovery DVDs to reinstall Windows 7, without damaging other existant partitions, here's the trick: You have to pre-create an NTFS primary partition at the very front of the disk (1st primary partition), make it at least 20GB (preferably more, since this will be where you run Windows7 - unless you also later create another partition solely for data/programs/etc). Then during the recovery, select the option to keep current partitioning intact. Everything will be placed in that first partition alone (the contents of which which the Win7 setup will erase), and the rest of your disk will be fine.
If you have other partitions already there, and on the rest of the disk, you'll have to first resize the existing partitions to create enough room for this new 1st primary partition. Then you'll have to shift or slide the current partitions up toward the back end of the disk (with 3rd party software). I also deleted the 1.5GB partition originally at the front of the disk (it's the startup repair partition, I learned), and I had previously deleted the 10GB recovery partition that came factory-placed at the back end of the disk.
The XP-partition I already had on the disk is tested and working fine, and wasn't touched at all by the Windows7 recovery installation. Installing additional XP-images or other OS's should be simple enough now.

How much can too many imports slow inititialization down?

How much can too many imports slow applet inititialization down?
I have seen our company's sorce code for some huge applets they have written. In many, many cases, the imports at the beginning of each file are written something like this...
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.border.*;
import javax.swing.event.*;Only certain portion of these imports are actually used. Does this sort of thing really impact the applets loading speed? I know it will obviously take at least a little longer but will the user even notice?

You are not actually importing the classes, but rather making the names of the classes available.

How Do I Fix Too Many Cards Error?

I am constantly getting the too many cards error whenever I use the web browser. Not to mention that my phone is slow ever since upgrading to Web OS 1.4 and restarts for no apparent reason.
What can be done to resolve this problem?

Unfortunately, for now, it seems that restarting is the only way around it. I'm coming from a Windows Mobile phone where I had to reset practically every day so maybe I'm just used to it, but I don't usually have to reset the Pre any sooner than every 3-4 days and that seems alright by me.
You can reset the phone without taking out the battery by holding down the power button while the screen is on, selecting "power" and choosing the reset option. Alternatively, you can hold down the Orange, Sym, and R buttons together if your phone is too wonky to even bring up the menu.
Hopefully Palm will fix this in their upcoming patch.

How to resolve "too many HTTP redirects"?

Hi, anyone who knows how to solve the error every time I open the App store in my iPad? It says "too many HTTP redirects". Thanks.

There have been many discussions about this - some of which are listed in the box on the right >>>>> More Like This. Take a look at some of those.
Some users restored from backups, reset all settings and there were a couple of other fixes that worked. Just take a look at those. When you open some of the those discussions you will see additional discussions in the More Like This boxes in those threads.

How much is too many?

Have an iPad 16gb.
Curious - At what point and how many Apps does it take for the device to be affected and slow down?

Ask 300 people, get 300 answers .....
I rarely have more than 4 or 5 apps in my recents tray at any one time. But you can bet your bottom dollar that my browser - and it doesn't matter which of the five that I have I am using at the time - will crash on me every day - day after day - 3 or 4 times a day. I seem to have particularly bad luck with the iPad internet experience. When I use the Mercury browser - and it has done this since day one - I constantly get the low memory warning - even if I have closed all apps and have just restarted the iPad.
That's kind of a bummer for me because my iPad has become more of an mobile internet toy and email reader than a work machine. That's OK - I had no problem spending the money and taking the chance to see what I would get out of it because I wasn't quite sure what I would be using it for but I knew I really wanted one.
There really is a point to this and it is that no one has any way of knowing for certain how many is too many. As I have told you - I can run one solitary app and crash with great frequency. It's just something that only you can find out on your own as you continue to use the device.

How can you change the primary partition in Disk Utility?

I have made another partition using Disk Utility to install Snow Leopard. On my main partition Lion is installed but when i boot into Snow Leopard and try to delete the Lion partition it comes with an error "This operation requires a newer version of Mac OS X for this disk". I tried deleting the partition from Recovery HD but it says it couldn't unmount the disk.
Is this because Lion is the main partition, can you even delete the main partition?
And if I do delete the main partition will i be able to move the Snow Leopard partition "upwards" in Disk Utility?

1) First of all what is GUID.
It's the "partition map scheme" Apple uses so your firmware knows what is what on your boot drive, what partitions there are and what format they contain.
2) Secondly, would I just be able to make a new image in disk utility and use that instead of an external hard drive?
No, you need something to boot off of and remove all data off the internal drive that's going to be reformatted with a new parttion, that's why you use the free Carbon Copy Cloner, it does both in one shot and it "blesses" the drive to make it bootable.
3) When I use Carbon Copy cloner will it only copy Snow Leopard Installation or all of my files also?
It copies everything in your Snow Leopard partition to the external drive, files, programs the OS everything except whats in the Trash.
4) In your 8th step you mentioned repairing permissions on both. Both of what?
Both drives, the internal and the external clone in Disk Utility (ignore the long list that appears)
It's a safety check to make sure your permissions are set back to original settings, I think the newer version of CCC now does this, but I havent' checked, doesn't hurt to do it again.
5) If you still feel like typing can you tell me how long this whole process might take?
Formatting a external drive
You should Erase with Zero option first, that will take a hour per 500GB
Formatting shoud be rather fast, a few minutes.
Cloning Snow Leopard to the external drive should take about a hour per 500GB
Formatting the internal drive a zero erase first for safety should take another hour per 500GB
Reverse cloning Snow Leopard back onto the internal drive should take another hour per 500GB
Good thing about it, it's pretty much all ciick and go watch TV while it works.
I was actually planning to make a Genius Bar appointment to fix it, by the way does that cost much?
No idea, but you don't have to pay if you get a external drive for $70 or so, CCC is free.
You get to keep the external drive and use it later for cloning as hard drives die all the time, the clone would get you back to using the computer.

How to handle too many songs for disk space?

I have a limited collection of fongs on my primary hard drive; most of my collection - about 500GB - is kept on network attached storage. When I install iTunes it copies the music files in My Music to its iTunes Media folder. That's OK for the limited size of My Music - I have enough room on the primary hard drive for the copies. But there is no way I can store a copy of all the files on the NAS. So how do I 'catalog' those files, as well as those on my primary hard drive?

OK, I follow this - except that I read elsewhere (in this forum if memory serves me correctly) that one reason to use the option to copy media to iTunes was so that iTunes would not create duplicate entries - which it seems very fond of doing, no matter how many times I delete them.
If this is not the purpose of the Media folder, then what purpose does it have?
Assuming that I elect to stop this copying, what is the recommended way of removing all the files in the media folder: blunt force with Windows Explorer, or is there an implicit/explicit command somewhere in iTunes that I haven't understood?
And is iTunes limited to just the 1 location for 'sources' of music - or is that what the 'add folder to Library' is meant to do?

How to handle too many custom UITableViewCells in UITableView?

In my iphone app, I need to display many custom rows (maybe thousands or even more) in the UITableView. I add one custom UIView onto each UITableViewCell in "- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath" function, so there will be allocate much memory for the all my custom UIViews. When I add 500 rows into the UITableView, the memory ran out, then the app crashed. I think maybe there is something wrong with my code or design, I don't know how to handle this (thousands custom rows in UITableView). Please help me.... Thanks very much..
Below is the my code:(if I have thousands of rows, the following code will allocate thousands of CustomViews), is there any way that not allocate so many CustomViews?
// Customize the appearance of table view cells.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
**cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 110, 25) reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease] ;
// Set up the cell...
CustomView *cellView = [[CustomView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(1, 1, 108, 24)];
[cell addSubview: cellView];
[cellView release];
return cell;
}

Hi,
well you should add the customView if you need to create a new cell only. Any reused cell will contain this customview allready since you've added it when the cell was created.
static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 110, 25) reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
// Add customView to new cell's only
CustomView *cellView = [CustomView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(1, 1, 108, 24)];
[cell addSubview: cellView];
[cellView release];
// Set up the cell...
return cell;

FillSchema picks too many primary key columns

I don't know whether this is an ODP.NET error or a Microsoft error.
Oracle9i Release 9.2.0.1.0
ODP.NET 9.2.0.4
.NET Framework 1.1
Create a table with one primary key column and one unique column and name the primary key column like the unique column with the suffix "_ID":
CREATE TABLE t_bib_uebertrag_kap(
&nbsp kapazitaet_id NUMBER(8) NOT NULL
&nbsp&nbsp CONSTRAINT pk_kapa primary key,
&nbsp kapazitaet VARCHAR2(15) NOT NULL
&nbsp&nbsp CONSTRAINT a_un_kapa unique,
&nbsp geschwindigkeit NUMBER(12) NOT NULL,
&nbsp bemerkung VARCHAR2(255)
After calling FillSchema on this table the PrimaryKey property of the DataTable contains 2 columns: KAPAZITAET_ID and KAPAZITAET.
The same happens with other tables and similar column names
R. Lüthke

Tony, I'm gonna find time to try this because I was thinking it probably would be a double check.
BUT... Oracle is written in C, and I imagine the extra check as a simple if comparison for the new value versus a constant NULL value. Kind of like checking for end of string. It's already doing things like checking datatypes and that as it inserts data, and I don't think this additional check (if it even exists) would add any significant overhead.
But unless I find a much larger performance hit than I expect, I'm gonna stick with creating the NOT NULL's explicitly. Good data modelling trumps small performance tricks for me.
My main worry is if/when somebody removes the primary key constraint (such as the example above where they might do a CREATE TABLE x AS SELECT * FROM y). Or if the data model gets updated to where the primary key becomes just a unique key, then the NOT NULL goes away when it shouldn't. I don't like basic table and column properties changing.
Okay.. test done. Ran about 31,000 records from dba_tables through an insert into two tables, both with primary keys and one with explicit NOT NULLs. No measurable difference in stats detected.
With NOT NULL and PRIMARY KEY:
call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows
Parse 1 0.35 0.35 0 0 0 0
Execute 1 1.88 1.83 0 24792 35887 30954
Fetch 0 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0
total 2 2.24 2.18 0 24792 35887 30954
Now with only PRIMARY KEY.
