All local IPs are then assigned by the router , and the router goes to the

the key thing I see here is that any space to be allocated as partitions
MUST be contiguous, (all together in a block). There is NO way to get space
at the end of a drive to be in a partition 3 partitions in front of it
without deleting those three partitions and including that space too.

First things first..
