For GPT, use gdisk as a substitute for fdisk. gdisk 0.6.10 is available for CentOS 4 and 5 in the RPMforge third-party repository. The version in Fedora 14 is 0.6.13, for comparison. Output on my laptop:
[root@localhost ~]# gdisk /dev/sda -l
GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.6.13
Partition table scan:
MBR: protective
BSD: not present
APM: not present
GPT: present
Found valid GPT with protective MBR; using GPT.

Don't know why the repeated 3s are there.
