It isn't that hard. Linux FDISK versions I've used limit total to 16. IfI seemed to remember it was 16 or something like it - but fact is, people who have a legitimate reason for more partitions than that are going to have several disks anyway, so the problem isn't really troo much of a problem.
you let it write the table on a disk with more than 16, you lose all
beyond #16. I have more than that on a 40GB, and if I had larger,
there'd be a whole lot more.
