When trying to create a partition with the "fdisk<\/strong>" utility, 2 or more TB in size, the following message appears:<\/p>\n

The size of this disk is 2 TiB (2199023255552 bytes). DOS partition table format cannot be used on drives for volumes larger than 2199023255040 bytes for 512-byte sectors. Use GUID partition table format (GPT).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Solution:<\/h3>\n

Add the "gpt<\/strong>" label on the new disk<\/p>\n

\r\nparted \/dev\/nvme2n1\r\n<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
Where "nvme2n1<\/strong>" — is your disk<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
 <\/p>\n
Add the label:<\/p>\n
\r\nmklabel gpt\r\n<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
Checking:<\/p>\n
\r\nprint\r\n<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
Then we return to fdisk<\/strong> and create the desired partition. The section can also be created in the "parted<\/strong>" utility<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
Let’s create a file system, for this we copy the full path of the created partition<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
And we create a file system, in this example it’s ext4<\/strong>:<\/p>\n
\r\nmkfs.ext4 \/dev\/nvme2n1p1\r\n<\/pre>\n
