Try to tell that to FDISK of DOS/WIN.....
It gives me one main partition only.
I get a choice of:
Create primary DOS partition
Create extended partition
Create logical partition within extended partition.
After creating the first primary DOS partition, you cannot make a second
one. It will say: already exists.....
Leaving only Extended and logical within extended.....
