Okay, I installed it with yum. I ran it:

[root at p733 chris]# gpart /dev/sdb

Begin scan...
Possible partition(DOS FAT), size(2999mb), offset(6540mb)
End scan.

Checking partitions...

* Warning: partition(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT, LBA) ends beyond 
disk end.
Partition(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT, LBA): invalid primary
Ok.

Guessed primary partition table:
Primary partition(1)
   type: 000(0x00)(unused)
   size: 0mb #s(0) s(0-0)
   chs:  (0/0/0)-(0/0/0)d (0/0/0)-(0/0/0)r

Primary partition(2)
   type: 000(0x00)(unused)
   size: 0mb #s(0) s(0-0)
   chs:  (0/0/0)-(0/0/0)d (0/0/0)-(0/0/0)r

Primary partition(3)
   type: 000(0x00)(unused)
   size: 0mb #s(0) s(0-0)
   chs:  (0/0/0)-(0/0/0)d (0/0/0)-(0/0/0)r

Primary partition(4)
   type: 000(0x00)(unused)
   size: 0mb #s(0) s(0-0)
   chs:  (0/0/0)-(0/0/0)d (0/0/0)-(0/0/0)r

I don't see any evidence of anything on this hard drive...
