In response to the people who don't like what Brian had to say, I would like to say that we can't start making assumptions about what hardware people have and ignore anyone who does not fit those assumptions. I support Brian on this. If you guys want to have documentation on more advanced disk tricks, make a separate handbook that specializes in partitioning and filesystems. The main handbook can include a reference to it for advanced users.
