1285 Your F<C:> partition.  Doesn't work under Windows 95.  This allows
1286 you to read or write raw sectors of that partition and to use
1288 to the partition.  Writing raw sectors and certain other operations

1886 Takes a partition type and returns whether that partition is a
1887 "container" partition that is supported under Win32, that is, whether
1888 it is an "extended" partition that can contain "logical" partitions.
