Yes, Linux does use an extended partition. But Linux fdisk is
smarter then DOS/Windows fdisk. You do not have to create the
extended partition yourself. If you create a logical partition,
the extended partition is created for you. (It also generated
an error if you try to create a logical partition after you have
4 primary partitions.)
