What exactly is missing, anyway? The boot loader should support GPT
just fine.

It can't find any volumes. Naturally, as it doesn't know what volumes are BFS and it doesn't scan the GPT for partitions. Or at least it seemingly doesn't. Haven't checked the code yet.

That's haiku_loader, by the way. With stage1 hardcoded to the right offset it gets to the point where haiku_loader is, well, loaded. But unable to find volumes, unless a reference to it is also found on the (protective, hybrid) MBR. Which is exactly the setup I'm using.

AMD rig with plain old BIOS.
