In fact the MBR contains the definition of only one (dummy)partition, since it's GPT, like: [ctor@dom0 ~]$ sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=here.mbr bs=512 count=1 1+0 records in 1+0 records out 512 bytes copied, 8.5102e-05 s, 6.0 MB/s [ctor@dom0 ~]$ fdisk -l here.mbr GPT PMBR size mismatch (468862127 != 0) will be corrected by w(rite). Disk here.mbr: 512 B, 512 bytes, 1 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type here.mbr1 1 468862127 468862127 223.6G ee GPT but this doesn't matter. I see the 'Boot' field is present only here (when type is dos, but not when type is gpt) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
