Subject: GPT partition removal
Hi All,
Is there a way to get past the "blow off" answer I got back from Red
Hat on:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=733807
This is where SL6.0's fdisk won't remove a GPT partition
but Fedora Core 15's fdisk will.
Is there some mechanism where the SL community can get
by the traffic cop and get something fixed over at RHEL?
Many thanks,
-T

This program is explicitly designed to handle GPT partition tables, including converting them to MBR partition tables. The website includes specific information on how to convert between the partition table types, and why some of the tools don't handle it correctly.
