It is when initially initializing the drive.

Simply select two partitions, and make the size of the first  
partition 131,072 MB, then "lock" that partition. Let the second  
partition be what it is, then "lock" that partition, too.

Now, selectively "unlock" one partition at a time, and "split" it as  
your needs require, "locking" them again.

Finally, when all partitions have been laid out, click "partition".

The results will not add up as there is overhead in each partition,  
and the split ones, too.

Which is why you initially start off with a 131,072 MB partition  
which has been "locked" so it cannot be resized.
