Greg, can you read English??  Can you comprehend it??  Are you bind and in
a write-only mode??  
For the last time IT IS NOT A MICROSOFT PARTITION TABLE but a PC BIOS
PARTITION TABLE AND DICTATED BY THE INTEL x86 PLATFORM.  THEY ARE ALSO
REQUIRED BY THE IA-64 PLATFORM.

Why do you *insist* on calling it a "Microsoft partition table"??
To the best of my knowledge, you are not one of our boot experts, so who
do you keep putting forth this FUD?
