Thing is (and what I presume they mean here) "invalid" can also mean "non-existent". If you're not a native English speaker - and even if you are - this can be confusing.
Huh.
To me, it's clear. There is no GPT, and it's warning you that if you save to disk it will create one.
The first bit tells you that there is no gpt. The second bit tells you that because it can't find a valid gpt (because it doesn't exist) it is creating one for you.
If there is no GPT main table but there is a backup table at the end of the disk, it could also say that there is no GPT table, and that it is invalid. Very confusing wording. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
