Problem:
# sfdisk -l /dev/sdb WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sdb'! The util fdisk doesn't support GPT. Use GNU Parted. Disk /dev/sdb: 27960.2 GB, 27960226611200 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3399303 cylinders, total 54609817600 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0xe907e907
Solution :
#fdisk -l /dev/sdb
- To create a partition start GNU parted as follows:
# parted /dev/sdb Output: GNU Parted 2.3 Using /dev/sdb Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands. (parted)
- Creates a new GPT disklabel i.e. partition table:
(parted) mklabel gpt Sample outputs: Warning: The existing disk label on /dev/sdb will be destroyed and all data on this disk will be lost. Do you want to continue? Yes/No? yes (parted)
- Next, set the default unit to TB, enter:
(parted) unit TB
- To create a 3TB partition size, enter:
(parted) mkpart primary 0 0 OR (parted) mkpart primary 0.00TB 3.00TB
- To print the current partitions, enter:
(parted) print
Still you get this WARNING then use this commands:
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdb bs=512 count=64 or dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=1024
Done
