Then you just need to change the options accordingly.

  <match key="volume.partition.msdos_part_table_type" int="0x07">


will probably become

  <match key="volume.partition.msdos_part_table_type" int="0x0b">


or if you use LBA

  <match key="volume.partition.msdos_part_table_type" int="0x0c">

Also, you will want to change the 'umask', 'ro', and other options as 
you see fit.
