This is just one more live example for partitions vs disks setups.

Well, they did use partitions, but what do you do when the new RAID controller
bites off a whopping 100 million bytes from the end of your disk? I use
partitions too, and do leave some space at the end for cases like this, but
what I leave is just 8 MB (enough for the Gigabyte motherboards HPA), not
100+. Would you suggest setting aside 500MB, 1GB just in case?
