Subject: [PATCH 2/3] MdeModulePkg/PartitionDxe: Remove the check for special MBR
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2020 14:43:01 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200811064302.33188-3-zhichao.gao@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200811064302.33188-1-zhichao.gao@intel.com>

REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2823

Follow the spec definition, the ISO 9660 (and UDF) would be
checked before the MBR. So it is not required to skip such
MBR talbe that contian the entire block device.
