Tried it? I have Factory (11.0) installed on 8 systems. 3 of the 8 *don't*
have at least 15 partitions, and it's only on those 3 that Factory is not
installed above #15. I have multiple installations of 10.3 above #15 as well.

I don't experiment with partitioners, or use Linux partitioners, or windoz
partitioners, or OS/2 partitioners, or DOS partitioners. (I use a cross
platform shareware partitioner - DFSee.) My partitioning is normally 100%
finished before I ever start any OS installer. The one exception I recall is
the one time I used LVM for the target installation, and let the installer do
the subdividing on the previously created LVM partition.
