Hi all. I have an external portable hard drive that I'd like to setup
two partitions on. One will be used backup a Mac computer using a disk
cloner. The other partition will be for general storage and exchange
with Windows based computers. If I set it up so that the drive uses a
GUID Partition Map (instead of Master Boot Record), then a Mac based
computer would actually be able to boot off the clone partition. If I
use MBR, then that isn't possible. What I'm not sure about is if a
Windows based computer would be able to see a FAT partition if it
exists on a GUID drive.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Josh
