The system is partitioned with DOS type<br>> disk label. Hope all the
partition info is stored in MBR for DOS disk label.<br>> Once after we do partition with Parted and when system boots up, will it<br>> read GPT entry ?<br><br>Parted supports both DOS and GPT style disk-labels and will preserve the<br>existing formats as-is. So, if your existing disk label style is DOS, it<br>will still be DOS after you repartition using Parted.<br><br>Cheers,<br>-- <br>Anant<br></div></div><br></div></div><br>
