You can create a GPT and then edit the protective MBR using 'fdisk -g -u' to change the protective entry against a regular FAT entry. Without '-g' option, fdisk will erase the GPT without question. >Is it likely that "gpt biosboot" can work with evbarm or it is mainly >designed for x86? biosboot is for x86 BIOS.
