I had (on a 2G disk) a NTFS, a FAT and some Linux partitions. It even refused to convert to dynamic disk. When it finally did, my Linux partitions vanished. You need this support to even be able to use linux on that disk... btw that is my largest HDD I have :( So I now removed that crap, bought a laptop and use static disks. And installed some linux.
