can a md device be partitioned?

Hi, Could anyone tell me if an md device can be partitioned. when I do an fdisk on it it gives me a message telling me that md ioctl is obsolete, install new software and use new ioctl. i am currently using raidtools-0.90 the kernel patch I am using is raid0145-19990724-2.2.10 Thank
