[2025-jun-17] The SlackDocs mailing lists at https://lists.alienbase.nl/mailman/listinfo have been retired. No one has been using these lists for years and it's time to say goodbye. The list archives remain available at https://scalzi.slackware.nl/mailman/listinfo/slackdocs
[2025-jun-17] The SlackDocs Wiki has moved to a new server, in order to make it more performant.
pmbr_boot
One detail this article needs is the use of the pmbr_boot flag in parted (see http://www.rodsbooks.com/gdisk/bios.html). Some BIOSes (e.g. Intel) will not boot without this flag even if you have done everything else correctly. Would it be ok with everyone if I edited the article to include this info? It'll be my first slackdocs contribution, so I want to do it correctly

Ruario wrote this page over a year ago. My suggestion would be that you edit the page because it sounds like a useful addition. If ruario visits the page again, he can check whether he would like it different or leave it as you added it.
