Works fine with 3.0-RELEASE on both of my laptops (both noname

I just creeated a partitiion with system ID 160 at the end of the disc
and more than big enough. This works fine on both of my systems YMMV of course.
Otherwise you would need to boot DOS and use the utilities that come with the

usually assume a DOS partition that they can modify and sometimes LBA
translation messes things up.
