;       The PartEntry structure specifies the size and the starting
;       and ending sectors of a partition on a disk that can be
;       partitioned.
;       DOS supplies a partition table for every disk that can be
;       partitioned. The table, placed at the end of the first hidden
;       sector on the logical drive, consists of one or more PartEntry
;       structures.
