How to install easy2boot on GPT disk?
#1 · 2025-02-06, 6:22 AM
According to some search, grub4efi supports GPT disks. Does that mean that easy2boot is now liberated from the restriction of needing MBR disk? I was unable to find much info on this.
So: How to install easy2boot (with grub4efi, I guess) on a GPT disk, a disk that already has an ESP partition for booting already existing systems?

Hi
Easy2Boot is designed to work on an MBR partitioned disk.
It is not designed to work on a GPT partitioned disk,
E2B does not use grub4efi. There is a beta version which does use grub4efi but is does not work very well. Even this version only works on MBR USB drives.

Thanks for the info, Steve. I'm hoping this restriction will change in the future.
