0.3.4:
------
- Fixed bug that enabled (possibly accidental) entry of MBR type codes of
0x00 in GPTData::MakeHybrid(). The fix also enables entry of default
type code by pressing the Enter key when prompted. Applied a similar
fix to the entry of the type code for the second protective partition,
if one is used.
- Fixed a typo: "sectors" was spelled "sectprs" in one spot!
- Fixed bug that caused default entry for end sector to be refused if an
initial value using a plus sign (e.g., "+20G") was also refused.
0.3.3:
------
- Gave users control over the way MBR partitions are assigned to slots in a
hybrid MBR setup; the original method (putting the 0xEE partition after
the real partitions) works well for non-boot disks, but both GRUB and
GRUB2 become confused by this type of setup, so it needs changing.
- Changed "blocks" to "sectors" in GPT and MBR table displays.
- Added "Boot" column to MBR table display; shows an asterisk (*) when the
partition's status is bootable.
0.3.2:
------
