So there's no real reason you couldn't have 10 if you had 2 primaries containing 4 logicals each.
However, while there may be a limit to the number of logical partitions allowed, my system has 3 primaries, (/hda1 is still Windows, /hda2 is /boot, and /hda3 contains 6 logical partitions /hda5-/hda10 with the rest of my linux system). derek
