Just change so
@var{part-type} is one of: primary, extended, logical.  Primary, extended
and logical are only used for msdos and dvh disk labels.

Not everybody has your knowledge and know that primary, extended, logical are 
narrowly linked stuff.
By saying only 'Extended and logical' are not used for msdos..., you let poor 
simple man as me fall into the trap.
