Indeed, something like that. :) This is where most Linux users are so far
familiar with the (MS-)DOS philosophy of getting a drive partitioned (if
they are, at all...) so explaining these differences, then, will be likely
to have to include a look at the technical philosophies at the core of these
differences, as well...  :)

Cheers,
Kristian
