Extended Partitions
I am curious to know if anyone knows how many extended partitions are supported using Cfdisk? I know it starts count with 5, as in sda5, but where does it end?

Re: Extended Partitions

djszapi: Thanks. It was logical partitions that I wanted to know about, I just couldn't think of the term (getting old sucks!).
