Not strictly true...

I put a 20Gb drive into my CT100 and made as large a partition as I could
using a plain DOS boot disk and FDISK. This created a partition which was
8Gb minus the space for the hibernation partition. I then rebooted and
loaded Partition Magic (I imagine other freeware partition tools would work
just as well). I then created a 200Mb partition at the end of the first one
and marked it HIDDEN, then created a partition after that one to fill the
rest of the disk.
I then loaded Win98SE and it could see both the partitions and use all the
disk... no overlay software required.
