Adapt MBR images to GPT
-
Hello!
I have about 20 Windows 10 images created and captured in FOG in MBR. Now i have been asked to convert them all to GPT and keeping the originals for older computers. Could it be possible to do it without having to recapture them all again in GPT and duplicate images?
1.5.10 FOG Version.
Thanks.

This might help? Not sure you can convert the actual image files on fog without a recapture, that would be difficult if not impossible. But you could automate a conversion to gpt after imaging perhaps -
@JJ-Fullmer thanks for the help. I have a post cloning script with mbr2gpt, but on the first boot it always generates a dual boot. When entering Windows for the first time it can be removed, but it is not the cleanest.

Ok I did it. If I dont set the partition as UEFI it doesnt add another entry in the boot. I have tested many times and it doesnt seems to fail… Not sure the consecuences of not setting it as UEFI.
