The caveat being that this sort of mixing is illegal concerning GPT

must not be tampered with) so some systems / some tools will not see
the partitions anymore.

And the problem is that this is a multiboot disk so NetBSD could
then be bootable, while some other systems will not anymore depending
on the way others accept or not the tampered GPT.


Yeah, and I don't know if gdisk(8) can even create an Hybrid MBR. If not, then
beaker can always fire up a good hex editor :)
