Unless you will need more than 4 FAT32 partitions set them all as Primary
Not as part of the of the extended partition.
The problem with including them within the logical partition is that
regardless of what partitioning program you use there exist the chance that
you will no longer be able to access them once you boot back into Windows.

I would not recommend that, although I have seen occasions where it works.
