[EDIT]
(an article claimed it can only be booted on UEFI gpt partition - it may 
happen the 'final release' can only be booted on a UEFI gpt partition, 
not on a BIOS msdos partition (highly doubtful), but the 'developers 
preview' sure allows booting on BIOS msdos partition also)

Sheesh.....is there a simpler way to put this?
I will not plea my non-native engrish.
