Oh, I mean... the PTTYPE would be "dos" but there would not be any 
FS_TYPE description (as per the udev name?). In any case.

Both regular "msdos" partition tables and PV signatures get an empty 
"TYPE" in blkid.

So I can match those in udev by just matching the empty string. Both are 
also given the same PTTYPE of "dos". So I cannot distinguish between 
msdos partition tables and PV disks.

Regards.
