No. Bootloaders store their code in a special "bios_grub" partition (type EF02) when using the CSM/BIOS boot mode or inside a EFI System partion when using EFI boot mode. There is no free space like in the MBR where the bootloaders store their code. The free space you are seeing is to align the partitions on 1MB boundaries. > 3) Are the last 689 sectors after the last partition used for storing > the backup GPT? No. This is for alignment as well. Grüße, S° -- Sigmentation fault. Core dumped. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
