You need to have a physical extended partition in the first place then
once you have that, you need to create partitions with in that
extended partition.
After you allocate space in terms of partitions, create a file-system
on that. Probably using mkfs..
Then you can mount it just like any other partition.
"Linux" doesn't need any special commands to mount extended
partitions.
# mount -t type /path/to/devicefile /path/to/mountpoint
And yeah, you need to be root to execute the above command, unless you
have entries in /etc/fstab that specifies otherwise.
