I don't recall as it's been a while since I tried. It was either created 
under Windows 10, or using gparted under Linux. I never considered 
trying to do it on OI. Seems to me the value of ntfs-3g would be 
diminished if it can only work with partitions and filesystems created 
by the tool itself.

For that matter, I'm curious whether a Windows system would respect a 
partition and NTFS filesystem created by ntfs-3g. I sure would hope so 
as this utility is, after all, to help provide interoperability.
