Colin, thanks for looking at this again. I think my suggestion for
conditionalizing on < 2 TB is better than conditionalizing on Mac vs.
non-Mac, because if a Mac had a 2 TB drive, I'm guessing it would suffer
this same problem, as it is Linux that is preferring the msdos partition
table to GPT, not the BIOS, so the hardware shouldn't matter. If you
really want consistency on non-Macs, then you probably want to
conditionalize as: if (mac && drive_size < 2 TB && number_of_partitions
<= 4) { sync_gpt(); } else { protect_gpt(); }
