To do so, you must boot to a + Recovery HD system, open a Terminal, type "csrutil disable", and reboot + into the normal system. You can re-enable the security features by + repeating the process, but specify "enable" rather than "disable". If you + know of a way around this (including code changes to gdisk), please + contact me. + +- I've updated my OS X environment to OS X 10.11 and LLVM 7.0.0. This has + also meant installing fresh versions of popt and ncurses from MacPorts, + which may require upgrading popt to get sgdisk working on some systems. + (gdisk, cgdisk, and fixparts should continue to work normally on all + systems.) The OS X binaries are now "fat" (32- and 64-bit) versions, + which should have no noticeable effect unless you have a Mac with broken + 32-bit support, in which case the binaries will now work. + +- Changed the default name of 0xab00 partitions from "Apple boot" to + "Recovery HD", since the latter is the name that Apple gives these + partitions. Also, I discovered through painful experience that OS X + flakes out and won't boot if the name is something other than "Recovery + HD", so it really has to have the right name! + - Changed the OpenBSD type codes (0xa600 and 0xa601): 0xa600 is now 824CC7A0-36A8-11E3-890A-952519AD3F61 (OpenBSD disklabel) and 0xa601 is now gone.
