I'm just reading up on GUID partition tables, and messing around with gdisk
, I see these two titles.
What is the difference between them?
I am referring to the following (emphasis mine) shown when running gdisk
:
GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.8.7
Type device filename, or press to exit: /dev/sda
Partition table scan:
MBR: protective
BSD: not present
APM: not present
GPT: presentFound valid GPT with protective MBR; using GPT.
Command (? for help): i
