gpt disk label and /boot

[Jean Spirat]

Hi,

 I have some issue with gpt and grub and i just wanted to know if the 
setup-storage configure the /boot with the gui 
21686148-6449-6E6F-744E-656564454649 (so that grub can use it). I do not 
know how to verify this at all some i am kind of lost :)

  of course things get complicated when the /boot  is on a raid/lvm 
partition. How do you handle this case ?

regards,
JEan.


The *BIOS Boot Partition* is a partition 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_%28computing%29> on a data 
storage device <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_storage_device> that 
may be used by standard BIOS <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS>-based 
machines in order to boot when the partition table of the device is a 
GPT <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table> label.

The Globally Unique Identifier 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globally_Unique_Identifier> for the BIOS 
Boot Partition in the GPT scheme is 
21686148-6449-6E6F-744E-656564454649. In the context of GPT labels, it 
is the BIOS equivalent of the EFI System Partition 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EFI_System_Partition> (which is used by 
systems based on EFI <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EFI> rather than BIOS).
