p14 | I have a need for the legacy boot. X86 metal machines can only boot to it on AWS... :< | 21:59:54 |

p14 | Is there a way to do that as a part of repart? I'm guessing not, so it'd essentially have to copy the image and install to it in a new build. | 22:08:09 |

p14 | I was thinking if I could install the MBR into its own dedicated partition, but I'm guessing it really has to go into the partition table itself. | 22:08:42 |
