You are probably right.

It is fom 0 to 15, which makes 16; but the 0 is the whole disk. So it must 
be 15 partitions.

However, the 10.3 installer message talks about 16. Perhaps it says "16 or 
more", but I'd had to reboot in order to check it.

If the legacy drivers are not included, then install and usage are
impossible. I'd hug that "may", but...

It is also confirmed by <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=309070#c11>
