In open server earlier versions, and probably later versions also, logged in as root you run "divvy hd0x" with the x one of the existing ones showing when you look at
/dev/hd0*.

That will allow you to name a division, assign starting and ending blocks, and tell it to create it.

Then you would add the filesystem to the system, either by the administration tool or by "mkdev fs".
