Thanks to your message I've spent some time playing with gpt today
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table
and I now think there's a good case for putting gptfdisk into LFS.
fdisk and cfdisk are installed in LFS but if you have a GUID partition
table they're no use. I think gptfdisk should be in LFS.
