Package Exports
- disk
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (disk) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Usage
var Disk = require( 'disk' )
Set up a device to work with. This can be anything with a blockdevice compatible API.
var device = new BlockDevice({
path: BlockDevice.getPath( 0 )
})
Create a disk:
var disk = new Disk( device )
Open the device:
// This also attempts to detect it's block size if unspecified,
// as well as reading the MBR & GPT on the device
disk.open( function( error ) {})
Read or write the MBR (disk.mbr
) from or to the device:
disk.readMBR( function( error, mbr ) {})
disk.writeMBR( function( error ) {})
Read or write the GPT (disk.gpt
) from or to the device:
disk.readGPT( function( error, gpt ) {})
disk.writeGPT( function( error ) {})
Verify the backup GPT; NOTE: The callback will be called with an error and the backup GPT if it doesn't verify.
disk.verifyGPT( function( error, backupGPT ) {})
Close the device:
disk.close( function( error ) {})
