Thanks Carl. Looks like that was the problem, msdos label. had to use parted to repartition and relabel to gpt everything seems kosher now. its too bad 'partitioner' in yast2 doesn't give an option to do this. I hosed my system the first time trying to get by without fully understanding how parted works.
I did have a bit of trouble with grub, had to switch to lilo, grub didn't seem to like the huge disk parameters just kept talking about disk params out of range.
