> You can create plenty more than 4 partitions I was under the impression that the MBR/GPT (UEFI/BIOS ?!) bridge/mapping will only work when using 4 partitions or less, because that's what the MBR partition table is limited to.
>From gptsync's package description: gptsync is a utility to maintain an MBR partition table synchronised with a GPT partition table used as reference. The resulting MBR partition table can contain up to 4 partitions; extended partitions are not supported. An MBR partition table is required to use legacy bootloaders (lilo, grub) on EFI-based (Extensible Firmware Interface) machines like the Intel-based Macs. gptsync is usually used in combination with the rEFIt boot menu on such machines. I think gptsync is not required at all when using grub2?! I will try to create more than 4 partitions with the Ubuntu installer tomorrow and see how/if that works. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1027951 Title: grub-probe does not understand LUKS volumes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1027951/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
