There's no actual advantage of primary partitions on linux anyway.
Extlinux depends on primary partitions, but GRUB doesn't.
The thing is that I no longer have the freedom to do what I want when
installing (unless I've missed something crucial). If there is an
advantage in using other partition schemes is another question.


I have a 2TB drive formatted as a single MBR partition.
I guess that's just about the limit of and MBR partition size.
But what if the sector size is made to be programmable
and is increased at formatting time to values like 2K bytes
or even 128K bytes, and then let the FS decide how to use
those sectors?
