I am in the process of repartitioning the drive on my laptop so I can
make room for Linux when I notice there's a little invisible partition
at the beginning of the drive labelled DELLUTILITY (DU). Since I'm
planning to dual boot with XP (haven't found a good Linux alternative to
OrCAD PSPICE), I would prefer to have NTFS, FAT32, Ext3, and Ext3 Swap
partitions however you're only able to have 4 primary partitions and DU
is listed as one. Does anyone know what the DU partition is for? Also
is it safe to remove? This is on a Latitude D610 if it matters.
