I used to be able to throw a BIOS boot partition into my GPT covering sectors
34-2047.
The actual OS partition starts at 2048 and is all nicely aligned as it should
be.
Combined with a hybrid MBR, this gives grub somewhere to dump itself so I can
boot on non-EFI BIOSes.
Now fdisk won't let me do it and I can't seem to find any force flags to tell
it to leave me alone.
Unless I'm missing something, this seems like a bug.
Thanks! -Tyson
