Mounting a volumes of a GPT disk on Windows

Hi,

 

I'm trying to mount volumes of a GPT disk using the Windows implementation of the VDDK. In these environments, mounting works perfectly:

 

- natively within a windows vm: it "sees" all the GPT partitions and volumes

- using the vddk on Linux

 

It doesn't work at all in these environments:

 

- using the vddk on Windows

 

The Windows vddk seems to "see" only one partition instead of multiple GPT partitions. I assume that the visible partition is the MBR protective partition. I cannot mount it.

 

Now my questions:

 

- is it supposed to work on Windows?

- or am I facing a known restriction of the vddk?

 

Thanks a lot for your help,

Uli
