GPT and parted



Hi,

Considering Intel based Macs exists these days, minimum mentioning of
relevant info is helpful in "C.5. Debian Partitioning Programs".

Specifically, add "parted" to good partition software.
Also, at lease mention in "C.5.1. Partitioning for Intel x86", that

Some very recent mother board and Intel based Macs use EFI bootloader
and GPT partitioning scheme.  Please seek appropriate help to work with
them.

Or steal things from IA64 since it is EFI system.
  "C.5.1. Partitioning for IA-64"
