+CONFIG_LDM_PARTITION
+ Say Y here if you would like to use hard disks under Linux which

+ They are also known as "Dynamic Disks".

+ 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.
