Hi, I am writing a utility from scratch to create GPT-based Windows Partitions from Linux and then backup the data from a source partition. I am referring the parted code to check how the GUID can be generated.
>From information in wiki I understand that the DiskGUID and UniquePartitionGUID for Windows partitions can be can be Class 4 GUID values. However I am not clear if it is OK to generate the other bytes in the GUID randomly and then Windows will recognize the partitions. Does Windows recognizable GUID need to satisfy any other condition other than it is a Class 4 GUID? Regards, Arun
