Convert GPT to MBR with Diskpart

In some technology or computer forum, some technicians give some advice that convert GPT to MBR with Diskpart, which is run by program code. The specific steps are following below:

• Enter system installing interface by using Win 7 disc or USB hard drive boot. and then press “Shift”+”F10” to open the command prompt.
• Input “Diskpart” (do not input quotation mark, the following as well), and then press “Enter”to enter operating interface.
• Input “list disk”: to check hard disk properties. Pay more attention to capacity of hard disk to select. Usually, disk 0 is hard disk, and disk 1 is the usb dirve where wins 7 install.
• Input “select disk 0”: to select disk 0 as the disk that is operating.
• Input “clean”: to clean up current hard disk’s partition.
• Input “convert mbr”: to convert GPT into MBR.
• Input “create partition primary size = xxx”: to create the size of primary partition.
• Input “format fs = ntfs quickly”: to format disk to NTFS quickly.
• Input “exit”: to finish operating.
• Input “exit”: to shut down the command prompt.

After finishing operating, shut down the command prompt and install windows system on computer in normal way. The steps seems be concise, but the greatest shortage is that all data and files will be clean up. If you don’t have backup files in GPT disk, you will be crying and anxious for that. And if you don’t have some professional knowledge about program, this way is not recommended.

Install WintoUSB di Linux Mint

Currently WinUSB is not in the Ubuntu Software Center for Ubuntu 14.04 and there is no PPA for installing WinUSB in Ubuntu 14.04 either, so you have to install the Ubuntu 13.10 version.

1. Open the terminal using the keyboard combination Ctrl+Alt+T.
2. Download the winusb package that is compatible with your operating system's architecture:
   for Ubuntu 32-bit:
   

   wget https://launchpad.net/~colingille/+archive/freshlight/+files

   /winusb_1.0.11+saucy1_i386.deb
   

   for Ubuntu 64-bit:
   

   wget https://launchpad.net/~colingille/+archive/freshlight/+files

   /winusb_1.0.11+saucy1_amd64.deb  
   

3. Install winusb:
   

   sudo dpkg -i winusb_1.0.11+saucy1*
   

4. Fix dependencies errors:
   

   sudo apt-get -f install
   

These four steps will install the WinUSB graphical interface and the WinUSB command line tool. The WinUSB GUI is much easier to use than the WinUSB command line tool.
WinUSB is a tool for creating a bootable USB flash drive used for installing Windows. For creating a bootable USB flash drive for installing Ubuntu use the built-in Startup Disk Creator application. For creating a bootable USB flash drive for installing other Linux distros use UNetbootin from the Ubuntu Software Center.
