fdisk: to recognize partition type 0xEA (Rufus)
i used a partitioning+formatting tool product rufus 2.2. of https://rufus.akeo.ie/ This software has an extra format option for older BIOS. With this fix the main partition is created with some alignments and for the remaining unallocated space a small extra and empty partition with identification 0xEA is created. On the List of partition identifiers for PCs at http://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/partitions/partition_types-1.html is is said that there is a freedesktop proposal to use also type ea as boot partition Unfortunately the software fdisk (util-linux-2.27) can not classify that partition. I send for the fdisk program my 2 patches so that fdisk recognize this partition type. Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
