This is intentional as its the only way we can make sure there is space remaining to add the partitions which are larger and potentially growing. If you mark a partition as "must be primary", then that gives it additional priority and it will get allocated before partitions which don't have primary specified Utilizing primary partitions is totally wrong for this. Also precise control over the order of partitions should be available at least in the Expert mode, and better yet - it there should be a checkbox somewhere in DiskDruid to control the automatic reordering of partitions. You can also create partitions by specifying the cylinder range. Double click on a free space region and you can do this. |
