I noticed that too. I think it's a redhat default - it certainly
did it like that on my machine without me asking. I always go into
fdisk manually and check it and that's when I noticed it. I also
find it confusing later when I end up with hda1, hda2, hda5, hda6.
Makes me wonder where the "missing" partitions are. So I shifted
them back to all being primary partitions.
It probably doesn't really matter though.
Dave.
