Re: How internel emmc is partitioned through uboot prompt

I do not have personal experience with this.  What I've heard is that newer UEFI computers with internal emmc require a GUID partition table (gpt).  For UEFI boot, one partition must be formatted with a file system such as FAT32.  I would suggest setting the partition size at 256 MiB so that GParted can grow the partition if needed.  I think you can set the boot flag on the FAT32 partition so it is seen as the boot partition.
