Addition note on the ultra nasty hack:
: * Create a fresh gpt for the disk.
:
: gpt create da8
:
: * Create the hacked up special boot partition. It must be partition 0
: and it will complain if you already have a gpt partition 0:
:
: gpt boot da8
packet mode may have to be set with boot0cfg on da8, otherwise
it may try to use CHS mode which doesn't work with GPT PMBRs.
