U mean more than 1 fat extended partition on the disk. There are "many"
types of extended partitions - one is the (in)famous win95-extended
partition - ID "F", but we also something called a linux extended
partition (ID 85) and there is also another just extended partition (ID 5)
which I do not know...
As for interoperability, my machine has one win95-extended partition (with
fat logical drives) and one linux extended partition( with logical drives
(ext2) for each of /, /usr, /home etc). I do not know much about the (ID
5) extended partition...
Give option "l" in fdisk (linux) to verify the above...
