I currently try to talk Debian out of nesting partitions,
even id the big one is type 0x00.
If the discussion is archived somewhere, a pointer to it would be nice
to have.
My proposal is rather to avoid GPT and to use the EFI option to
partition by a conventional MBR partition table.
That would also make possible to have the first partition mountable.
Yes, this would eliminate the conflict of requirements put on the MBR
partitions by Tiano Core and DG965SS.
The price would be (currently):
- The EFI system partion has to exist twice. Once as file in the
ISO to be usable as El Torito boot image. Once after the ISO,
so that ISO partition and EFI system partition do not overlap.
- The EFI system partition would not be covered by the ISO size.
Some scripts which checkread after copying might only read
that amount of bytes and report mismatch.
Have a nice day :)
Thanks for a constructive message :)
As for your other message, about reproduction of my iso, I am writing
the reply right now.
