I have a usage note for you and the person who did that partitioning.
If you start the partition at block 1 instead of block zero it probably
can coexist nicely with normal fdisk partitioning as well. (It used to
be able to since x86 partition tables didn't bother with blocks on the
first "cylinder" other than block zero.) I designed RDPrepX and
HDWrench to take advantage of that. (And I used it myself. Erm I used a
LOT of abominations such as safely nested partitions.)
