Create an extended partition in Vista

Today, I installed a Vista on Core 2 for a try. I don't know whether I can't understand the design of MS or whether it is intentional by Ms. After installation and installation, I cannot find the option to create an extended partition because I want to install FreeBSD, windows cannot occupy the primary partition of the entire hard disk. A solution can be found below Google.

During installation, only partitions on the disk where Windows Installation is required are created. After loading:

1. Run cmd to enter the command line;

2. Then run diskpart. Enter diskpart.

3. Run List to display the disk list. If I have a connected disk, 0, and 1 are displayed.

4. Run select disk 0 and select the first disk.

5. Enter create parttition extended to create an extended partition.
Note: This extended partition will include all the free disk space.

6. Then enter create parttition logical to create a logical partition.
This logical partition will also use all the space of the extended partition. Don't be afraid. When we go to disk management in Computer Management again, we can see the extended partition and logical partition, delete the logical partition directly, and then create a new logical partition.

Haha. Finally.

Run help in diskpart to get help.
