Operating System Support of GPT
Hybrid MBRs are non-standard and can be interpreted in different ways by different OSes. Unless otherwise noted, OSes provide precedence to the GPT data when a hybrid MBR configuration is encountered.
The term No native support on this arch and version. should be understood this way:
- Not supported as data disk, only known legacy partitions found in protective MBR are accessible via the OS. Detachable disks: only support for MBR partitioning; No access with end user applications. GPT contained raw data is accessible with third-party administrator tools for low level disk access. True file system level support in read or read-write form might be subject of software from a third-party vendor.
