Why can't a GPT partitioned volume be mounted?
Issue
- A volume partitioned using parted (GPT) cannot be mounted.
- parted reports the following: "Warning: /dev/sdx contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has a GPT table. However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should."
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
- GPT Partitioned devices
