Create 4 partitions (not logical drives, just primary partitions) to
fill the drive.  Delete one of the interior ones so that free space is
in the middle of the drive.  It still allows you to create BootManager
at the beginning or the end of free space - which is now in the middle
of the drive.  After you create BM, re-scarmble you partitons and
logical drives however they fit - and BM works just fine from the
middle of the drive as long as it's within the first 1024 cylinders.
