My understanding is ye olde partition type ID numbers are basically
irrelevant comments at this point. You can set them so that you see a
nice human-readable type name when you run "fdisk -l" or the equivalent,
but it's not actually used for anything. You could have a Linux ext4
file system on a partition that's marked as type "Microsoft basic data"
or anything else.
