Thanks. But it probably does not work. I called "z zap (destroy) GPT data structures and exit", re-created a MSDOS partition table and re-inserted the USB key (so that Linux scans the new partition table). But gdisk still complains about an invalid GPT:
mybox:~ # gdisk /dev/disk/by-id/usb-General_UDisk_1502050001210883950005-0:0 GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 1.0.1
Partition table scan: MBR: MBR only BSD: not present APM: not present GPT: not present
Where is it complaining about an *INVALID* GPT?
Just in the part you deleted from the post: *************************************************************** Found invalid GPT and valid MBR; converting MBR to GPT format in memory. THIS OPERATION IS POTENTIALLY DESTRUCTIVE! Exit by typing 'q' if you don't want to convert your MBR partitions to GPT format! *************************************************************** "Found invalid GPT", it says. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.
