+Windows' Logical Disk Manager (Dynamic Disk) support (EXPERIMENTAL)
+CONFIG_LDM_PARTITION
+  Say Y here if you would like to use hard disks under Linux which
+  were partitioned using Windows 2000's or XP's Logical Disk Manager.
+  They are also known as "Dynamic Disks".
+
+  Windows 2000 introduced the concept of Dynamic Disks to get around
+  the limitations of the PC's partitioning scheme.  The Logical Disk
+  Manager allows the user to repartion a disk and create spanned,
+  mirrored, striped or RAID volumes, all without the need for
+  rebooting.
+
+  Normal partitions are now called Basic Disks under Windows 2000 and XP.
