Some folks said "use parted". Be very careful of this, if there are any
partitions from the Windows world or if you are using a slightly out of date
parted and a new 2.6 kernel, there are some interesting bugs if you have
more than 1024 cylinders on your hard drive. (Typically a drive of more than
8 Gig).

Just note that you cannot delete an existing primary partition and
recreate it as a logical (part of an extended) partition, or vice versa,
and expect its contents to remain intact.
I know, I tried...
