i think so, i mean i am using MBR. in fact i couldnt make the new method that uses slimbuild to make a bootable USB stick, so i'm using MBR and fat-32 on my usb stick and i did the syslinux thing with windows. i cant remember now what partition map they recommend for the slimbuild usb method but they did say to use hfs+ journaled, and i couldnt get that to work.

but that's just on my USB stick, i dont know about on your hard disk.
