You tell *me* ... ;-) As some of you might have noticed I migrated to GRUB2 lately. My current question: Does it make sense to convert/move to GPT-style-partitioning on a current ~amd64 machine? (root-fs on software raid, btw) I browse through stuff like: http://www.rodsbooks.com/gdisk/ and wonder ... (maybe some hours of sleep also help). Filtering my gentoo-user-IMAP-folder only threw up this thread. -- Additional "problem": this box dual-boots Win7pro. Have some of you gentoo-users already been there, done that? Stefan
