The boot loader should have printed a "partition signature != 55AA" message in that case. However, it did not do this because of a regression in bootnorm.asm: https://github.com/FDOS/fdisk/blob/12633be160abaa087163ef53343fc96d1c4fbd81/source/fdisk/bootnorm.asm#L70 It compares with the signature of the relocated MBR (0:61FE) instead of the VBR (0:7DFE). I will prepare a fix and release FDISK 1.4.1 before RC2 comes out. Thanks for reporting!
