I am setting up my new hard drive. I think I want to put a NTFS partition at the end of the drive and a Linux partition at the start of the drive. I assumed NTFS wants to be created by Windows, so I went into "Disk Management" and it's… mysterious. I guess what I want to do here is create one "blank partition" filling the non-NTFS bits and then one NTFS partition filling the rest?

Does ANYTHING on ANY OS care if the GPT is created by Windows, Linux, whatever?
