Hi,
Thanks for reading this message.
The following is the case, I would like to create a pv on a whole disk but pvcreate gives me the message that there is a "partition table" on the disk.
I removed the partition table with "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdb bs=512 count=1" The fdisk command shows me that there is no partion table but pvcreate tells me different.
check if kernel has seen a partition during boot (cat /proc/partition) in this case you either have to issue
blockdev --rereadpt /dev/hdb or reboot
