question re MBR vs GPT with MX [solved]
question re MBR vs GPT with MX [solved]
Hi all. Read today that Win 11 requires GPT for security purposes. This is due to need to use latest UEFI, which apparently enhances Windows security in some way or ways. I had the impression that the GPT vs MBR question itself is relevant re allowing larger file size or larger directory/volume size. We can use GPT with MX but does this have any relevance re security on MX? I know that MX can be used either with legacy boot (which I have on my Thinkpad X220) or with UEFI. thanks in advance for enlightenment.

GPT: GUID Partition Table
MBR: Master Boot Record.
You are mixing things up. You can have MBR with GPT, so you are confusing things here.

Re: question re MBR vs GPT with MX
windows 11 is supposedly UEFI with secure boot enabled. MX cannot boot with secure boot enabled at this time, but UEFI is great.
