Subject Dell Machine Harddrive Partitions

I recently installed Partition Magic on my Dell computer.  I created a
logical drive.  In so doing, PM showed me additional "hidden" partitons on
the drive. At the beginning was a partition titled Dellutility, (Fat), total
size 55mb, used 7.4mb.  At the end was a partition titled Local Disk which
PM said was "other" and said"CP/M, Concurrent Dos, CTOS", total size 2816mb,
used 2816mb.  Can you tell me what each partition is and if there is any way
to read the information in these partitions?  What would be the result of
deleting either?  Thank you
