I beg to differ here. This numbering is the same as with primary
partitions, we create 4 then merge 2 to get one bigger partition - the
system doesn't get screwed up... There is just a missing number - we had
hda1, hda2, hda3 and hda4 earlier, now after merging 2&3 into 2 we have
hda1, hda2 and hda4. It may be same here or probably the numbering is
absolutely dynamic with logical partitions... Got to try it out though...
