Can Linux filesystems be made at the ‘back’ of a hard disk ?  Would creation of the filesystem at the back of the hard disk allow Linux to boot ?

I have 40Gb hard disk, the first 32GB is allocted to NTFS and FAT32 . I am using Partion Magic Pro 7.  This is on my ‘main’ hard disk. I have a 2^nd 20Gb hard disk that I use to play with so I won’t mess up my hard disk.
