Again the question: why partition it?  You can create a plain
unpartitioned amiga HD and format it under AmigaOS.  Why do you think it
needs an RDB?

It gets tricky if you use other filesystem than FFS.. (like SFS)
and some disk repair etc programs hate "non-real" partitions. (SFS utilities for example)
