Ways to create a data partition (Extended partition/GPT?) (1 reply)

Hi,

I have an 1 TB WD My Passport external hard drive that I want to use on my Pogoplug E-02. I plan to have a 5 GB rootfs, 512MB swap and the rest mounted as /home, where I will keep my data. Now, does the current kernel (2.6.32.18-dockstar, I believe I installed the V2 rescue) support extended partitions? I plan to keep one primary / partition, with swap and /home in an extended partition. If not, can I use GPT, where there are no restrictions on the number of primary partitons?

If there is some other way to do this, do tell.
