Hi Steve,
(+ Lukasz) Interesting - I'll defer to Lukasz... Thanks, Steve
Thanks guys for spotting the mistake and sorry for a late reply (holidays time).
I'm glad that this patch was included to v2015.01

According to the UEFI Spec (Table 16, section 5.2.3 of the version 2.4 Errata B), the protective MBR partition record size must be set to the size of the disk minus one, in LBAs.
However, the current code was setting the size as the total number of LBAs on the disk, resulting in an off-by-one error.
This confused the AM335x ROM code, and will probably confuse other tools as well.
