Convert MBR to GPT

Just became aware of this topic: yes it can be done with gdisk. I’ve done it on 3 system disks in 3 different machines.

Partition table backups should suffice in case anything goes wrong, see arch wiki:

If one wants to be extra careful, a full backup of all data should put one*s mind at ease.
