This is my disk partitions.

Disk /dev/hda: 60.0 GB, 60011642880 bytes

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7296 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

 

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System

 

/dev/hda1 * 1 1559 12522636 7 HPFS/NTFS

/dev/hda3 3985 3997 104422+ 83 Linux

/dev/hda4 3998 7296 26499217+ f W95 Ext'd (LBA)

/dev/hda5 3998 7166 25454961 83 Linux

/dev/hda6 7167 7296 1044193+ 82 Linux swap

 

How do I create several partitions (one for FAT32 and the rest for a new linux installation) between hda1 and hda3?

you can only create one between /dev/hda1 and /dev/hda3, specifically /dev/hda2 - although you may be able to make /dev/hda2 an extended partition (versus primary) and then created /dev/hda7-whatever within the extended partition (/dev/hda4 is an extended, too)...but I'm not sure if that's allowed or not.
