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.
