Package: extlinux
Version: 2:4.04+dfsg-2
Severity: important

After running extlinux-install on this system, it fails to boot.  The
BIOS prints an error message saying "No Operating System".

The system uses an Asus P7P55-M motherboard with AMI BIOS version 8.15.

I also tried explicitly copying gptmbr.bin to /dev/sda, with the same result.

The disk is currently partitioned as follows:

    Model: ATA Hitachi HDS72202 (scsi)
    Disk /dev/sda: 2000GB
    Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
    Partition Table: gpt

    Number  Start   End     Size    File system  Name  Flags
     1      17.4kB  1066kB  1049kB                     bios_grub
     2      1066kB  2000GB  2000GB  ext3               boot

It boots fine with grub, but I'd like to switch to extlinux if possible.
