Aspecial if you want a tripple boot system on a Macaintosh system, there will be nice to have this feature, because you can only have four partition in the MBR, which may be assigned as follow: Partitiona #1 EFI system partition Partition #2: Mac OX X Partition #3: Linux Partition #4: Windows Anyone in the future we may not have this discussion because all computer have moved to a UEFI systen caused by the 2 TB limitation of the MBR partition schea, but now we have the issue, that we have to support OS which are unable to support GPT partition hard discs.
