This seems likely to be the problem. CONFIG_LBD=y CONFIG_EFI=y CONFIG_FB_EFI=y CONFIG_PARTITION_ADVANCED=y # CONFIG_EFI_VARS is not set # CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION is not set I've got a kernel building now with CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION=y so I will know shortly. My thinking with the GPT partition table was to be more future proof. I'm already using 1.5 TiB drives, so it seems likely I would transition to 2 TiB or larger drives whenever I replaced these or added to the array. Do you know if using a traditional/msdos partition table now would be an issue if I wanted to migrate to larger disks in the future?
