I'm speaking about docs for the following reason - if this requirement is part of MSDOS partition table format/"standart" - OK, we should use this.
But if this  is not part of MSDOS partition table - there is just a bug in FC3 installer [fdisk/other disk utils] and such bug should be reported/fixed.

Rgds,
Vitaly
