Studying for the RHCSA and I've been trying to find an answer to a question thats been stuck in my head...
My understanding is for MBR you can have a total of 4 partitions which each cant be > 2TiB... Now, say what if the total hard drive was 10 TiB and the first 3 partitions made up a total of 1 TiB... If your fourth partition is extended, can it be the remaining 9TiB as long as the logical partitions within are < 2 TiB? Or is the extended also limited to 2 TiB.
Someone responded with using parted, which has worked. However, I'm still curious regarding the limitations of extended partition with MBR.
