You can do that if you like but it will have no effect. The "raid auto"
partition type only means anything on MBR partitions. You don't need
to, so
don't bother.
Thanks Neil.
Not using fdisk worked like a charm.
Using fdisk probably resulted in the disks going over to MBR rather than
GPT, and thus you have a 2TB limit.
By the way, you should probably try the parted again and fix the
alignment issue (rather than just "ignoring" it) - it will make a /big/
difference.
