I have a system that corrupts the backup GPT on every reboot: the CRC32 in the backup GPT is always 0. I run parted or gdisk to fix it, verify that everything is good (even by dd'ing the backup GPT and manually inspecting it), then reboot and bam, it's corrupt again (i.e., set to 0). I don't know if it's an OS bug, a firmware bug, or something with the actual disk. This was causing some headaches for me with anaconda: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=950145 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=951244 <-- especially this So fsck_gpt would indeed be useful. (Although it would probably force me to switch from UEFI back to legacy BIOS emulation and back to MBR partitioning on this one system.)
