[[specialsize]]
The `start` and `stop` attributes can be in the form of:
* A percentage, indicated by a percentage sign (`"10%"`)
* A size, indicated by the abbreviation (`"300K"`, `"30G"`, etc.)
** Accepts *K* (Kilobytes), *M* (Megabytes), *G* (Gigabytes), *T* (Terabytes), or *P* (Petabytes -- I know, I know.)
** Can also accept modifiers for this form (`"+500G"`, `"-400M"`)
* A percentage of the total disk size, indicated by a percentage sign (`"10%"`)
* A size, indicated by the abbreviation (`"300KiB"`, `"10GB"`, etc.)
** Accepts notation in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_prefix[SI or IEC formats^]
* A raw sector size, if no suffix is provided (sector sizes are *typically* 512 bytes but this can vary depending on disk) (`1024`)
* One can also specify modifiers (`"+10%"`, `"-400MB"`, etc.). A positive modifier indicates from the beginning of the *start of the disk* and a negative modifier specifies from the *end of the disk* (the default, if none is specified, is to use the _previously defined partition's end_ as the *start* for the new partition, or to use the _beginning of the usable disk space_ as the *start* if no previous partition is specified, and to *add* the size to the *start* until the *stop* is reached)
