Thanks Carl, but originally the Disklabel type: was DOS. I thought since my current system drive had a type of gpt I should change it. I could post the same information with Disklabel type : DOS and it would not change the problem. There is some other problem

One option to look into is to use wipefs to remove the gpt tables (plural). You have one at each end of the disk and using fdisk will not remove the gpt table at the end of the disk. (which will cause tools to still report the gpt format even though you have overwritten the table at the beginning of the disk). wipefs allows you to take care of both. Running without options, wipefs will report the tables that can be removed, but not actually remove them. See the man page for the invocation for removal. -- David C.
