发明名称 Method and apparatus to support legacy master boot record (MBR) partitions
摘要 Disclosed is a method, apparatus, and system in which a basic input/output BIOS is run and a non-volatile memory coupled to the BIOS is read. The BIOS determines if legacy partition address data is not present for a disk partition identified in the non-volatile memory, and if legacy partition address data is not present for the disk partition, the BIOS causes the execution of a Legacy OPROM. The execution of the Legacy OPROM causes legacy partition address data for the disk partition that does not have associated legacy partition address data to be obtained. The non-volatile memory as well as the disk drive is updated with the legacy partition address data.
