Pulkomandy:'''''Creating an intel partition map from Haiku installs a boot
loader by defaul'''''
And that's the exactly where the problem lies when you do it with haiku's
drivesetup,for some reason it doesn't initialize drives correctly, i
think the bug could be in the way it writes the MBR, the user chooses a
size for the partition but the end result is different once it's done,so
you can't boot from it, and sometimes if you try several times(as it was
the case with DFergFLA, drivesetup gets it right at some point, i hope
this info could be of some help.
So i suggest that we keep this ticket open until this issue with
drivesetup is solved.
Sorry DFergFLA if i didn't mention this clearly,i meant to tell you that,
but for some i did'nt write it down.
