I don't understand this at all. Why do logical partitions count
towards the surplus? I don't think they do.
OK I guess the answer is because logical partitions now need their
own alignment (within the extended partition), and that contributes
to the required surplus for the disk.
Do we resize the extended partition sufficiently (eg. if the extended
partition has 100 aligned logical partitions)?
