RT-11 DU: Handler Question

OK, as long as I don't run into any unforseen trouble that keeps me from having time, I plan on installing RT-11 on a large disk in the next few days. However, I won't be using the nice WQESD ESDI controller that I've got that makes partitioning disks easy. So I want to make sure I understand how partitioning works under RT-11. If I'm reading the manuals correctly I would first boot off of my RL02 pack and do the following .INIT/BADBLOCKS DU0: then .SQUEEZE/OUTPUT=DU0: DL1: .COPY/BOOT DL1:RT11FB.SYS DU0: and then boot the system from DU0: So far that's pretty straight forward, and except for using SQUEEZE to copy the distribution, pretty much the way I got it from RX50 to RL02. Now then since I'll want to use more than just the first 30Mb of the Hard Drive, I'll need to set up partitions. Do I do this prior to initializing DU0: or after booting from a freshly installed DU0:? I realize the command to do the partitioning is: .SET DU0 UNIT=0,PORT=0,PART=0 .SET DU1 UNIT=0,PORT=0,PART=1 .SET DU2 UNIT=0,PORT=0,PART=2 .SET DU3 UNIT=0,PORT=0,PART=3 Also I assume that a partition has to be 65,535 blocks, but does the last one have to be that, or will it simply be however much space is left?
