[gapan]

You need to destroy one of your primary partitions to create a logical one.

Be careful all, don't confond partition and filesystem on the partition !

Yes, of course, that's a solution, but it's undesirable for bigger partitions as it requires copying all data first. shrinking would just have to shrink the partition and if necessary move some blocks.

If you like your data, you have to do a backup of your data anyway before such tasks

Solution: Delete partition and create a new logical (correct) one ...

Then copy data from original (sda1) partition as did before but with wrong partition type.

Done.
