Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

MBR has a 2TB limit and linked-list logical partitions, which is not a good choice for scalability and usability.
Writing an OS image directly to disk is not a good idea from an administrative standpoint because it can destroy everything.

Describe the solution you'd like

Switch from MBR support to GPT support.
Instead of writing the OS image directly to disk, it should be stored in a FAT32 file system. It is an important step in gaining UEFI compatibility in the future.
