gpt partitions

Hello to all powerpc users still out there!

I've done a little data rescue and stored the saved data onto an external firewire disk. For some reasons I choose the EFI / GPT partition and used an ext3 partition on that device (done with an AMD desktop). I had to give the data back and went out with my PowerBook and the external disk ... to find out I couldn't mount it! Yes, I know, first: test, second: use it

Got some hints and found out that debian lenny ppc and ubuntu 9.04 ppc both kernels have disabled EFI partitions in the kernel config.

Perhaps there's a reason for that?

Just for the sake of interoperability could it be set for the next kernel revision?
