val make : Partition.t list -> (t, string) Stdlib.result

make partitions constructs an MBR given a desired list of primary partitions. An Error _ is returned if:

  • The number of partitions exceeds four,
  • Any of the partitions overlap with each other or the first sector,
  • More than one partition is marked as active (bootable).
val marshal : Cstruct.t -> t -> unit
val unmarshal : Cstruct.t -> (t, string) Stdlib.result
val sizeof : int

sizeof is the size of a master boot record in bytes (512 bytes)

val default_partition_start : int32

default sector offset for first partition
