Richard, how does devfs supports the rather limited and braindead primary
and extended partitions for Intel platforms? If we use extended
partitions, then we can have unlimited number of partitions (I think), but
on the other hand if we use all four primary partitions, we're stuck with
that. The answer is to only use primaries for systems that needs it (i.e
MSDOG/WinDOG95 et. al), and use extended for Linux.
Cheers,
Alex
