It's not about whether you use fdisk or gdisk, they are almost identical in use, it's about the type of partition table you use. If you like the idea of a partition table that only accepts four partitions, has to be kludged to use one of those as a container if you want more, has no simple way of backing up such a complex partition setup and has no redundancy in case of partition table corruption, fdisk and DOS are perfect for you :) DOS partition tables should have died out 30 years ago, we know who we have to thank for their continued existence... -- Neil Bothwick "Self-explanatory": technospeak for "Incomprehensible & undocumented"
