The trick with the RPi image really is to synchronize GPT and MBR into a working hybrid GPT setup, just like on Apple Macs. You can also use the "gptsync" tool if you like.
I have no idea what you are talking about above. Should I do anything different?
You need to make sure that the hybrid GPT stays hybrid. An easy tool to do this with is gptsync:
http://sourceforge.net/p/refind/code/ci/master/tree/gptsync/
IIRC gdisk also has a command to create the hybrid MBR entries from GPT. For information on what a hybrid GPT is, check out this web page:

The reason we're using a hybrid GPT is that this was the easiest way to tell kiwi that we need another FAT partition that is not /boot.

Excuse my ignorance. I am always thinking in cookbook procedures and only when strictly needed I get into the technology. So what you are suggesting is: 1. burn the image on the SD 2. remove the reconfig file 3. run gptsync on the SD 4. use the SD on the RPi and it should work as a headless system? -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
