Comment (by phoudoin):
I'm with modeenf here (both novice and interested ;-):
is this could unlock us poor GPT partitions guys?
AFAIK, our current boot loader don't support yet GPT, which needs
- to map/sync the MBR table with the GPT one,
- Haiku bootable partition(s) to live in the first 4 partitions
What this universal MBR will offer? No more MBR / GPT tables sync and no
first 4 partitions limit?
