LL2 not booting if one extended partition is formatted to FAT 32
#4
The drive can only have one "Extended" partition.  If you are trying to create another one, that's why it's failing.  Your sdb1 extended partition is currently filled by both the swap and home partitions.  You can use GParted (from a live LL DVD/USB) to expand the sdb1 partition to include all of the unallocated space first, then add a "Logical" FAT32 partition if you want it inside the extended partition.  Or you can just make the unallocated space into another "Primary" partition.

Are you trying to add that partition to the installation that you already have, or are you trying to re-install everything and have the FAT32 partition set-up during the installation?

Do you want the partition to be automatically mounted on each start-up?
