After creating two partitions (a 75 MB EFI partition and an ext4 one filling
all remaining space) and installing Debian Sid, gdisk 0.8.7-1 prints the
following list:
Disk /dev/sda: 234441648 sectors, 111.8 GiB
Logical sector size: 512 bytes
Disk identifier (GUID): 890FDD03-1AB9-4DBC-8187-B3CA0F9BF507
Partition table holds up to 128 entries
First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 234441614
Partitions will be aligned on 2048-sector boundaries
Total free space is 2014 sectors (1007.0 KiB)
1 2048 155647 75.0 MiB EF00 EFI
2 155648 234441614 111.7 GiB 0700 Debian
which implies that the second partition is a Microsoft Basic Data one; the more
appropriate 8300 should be used.
