boot code

基本解释

The firmware contains the code that processes this structure, so the map does not contain boot code like we saw in the DOS partition table.
固件里包含了处理这个结构的代码，所以这个结构表不包含有像我们在DOS分区里看到的启动代码。
The data structure also contains values about data inside of the partition, such as the location of the data area and the location of any boot code.
数据结构也包含分区里的数据值，比如数据区的位置或其它启动代码的位置。
Boot code will not be updated if either 1) is not associated with a volume or 2) is associated with a volume not connected to an underlying disk partition.
在以下两种情况下，不会更新主启动代码：1）此驱动器号没有关联卷2）与未连接到基本磁盘分区的卷关联。
