I currently have two partitions defined, the first is 2gb and the second is 16gb. I can do a pvcreate on the second, but not on the first. I've attached output from parted, fdisk, and pvcreate below... any ideas? --Josh ------ fdisk: ------ [root@one sbin]# fdisk -l /dev/sdb Disk /dev/sdb: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 4427 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 1 4428 35566479+ ee EFI GPT ------- parted: ------- [root@one sbin]# parted /dev/sdb print Disk geometry for /dev/sdb: 0.000-34732.890 megabytes Disk label type: GPT Minor Start End Filesystem Name Flags 1 0.017 2047.000 lba 2 2047.000 18733.000 lba --------- pvcreate: --------- [root@one sbin]# pvcreate /dev/sdb1 pvcreate -- invalid partition type 0xee for "/dev/sdb1" (must be 0x8e)
