Yes.

The on-topic conclusion so far is that i cowardly propose to zeroize
the MBR partition table in the mformat result before populating it
by mcopy.
(Code snippets from SYS_AREA_SPARC around line 855 could be transplanted
 and adapted to zeroize bytes 446 to 509 of efiimgfat.)

Exploring the other differences between mformat with and without -k is
probably useless, because the big truck makes its own lane anyway.


Have a nice day :)
