Yes, that's the whole point. In Windows, using the same GUID type code for Linux partitions that Windows uses for NTFS and FAT results in Linux partitions appearing in the list of available disks. Using a unique type code for Linux partitions, however, hides those partitions from Windows.
if it's true (hiding), it's really desirable
With MBR disks, this problem doesn't occur, because Linux has its own unique partition type code (0x83), and Windows doesn't try to access partition types it doesn't understand.
windows always flag as free and formatable a linux partition as far as I know
if you want to format the disk. Do the same thing with my
patched version of parted and it won't do that; Windows know enough not to try to access a partition that's marked with a type code it doesn't understand. The "Format..." option is also grayed out in Disk Management when you use a non-Windows partition type code GUID.
if true, your patch is really needed jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://pizzanetti.fr _______________________________________________ bug-parted mailing list bug-parted@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-parted
