Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.39.3).
Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command.

GPT PMBR size mismatch (209715199 != 419430399) will be corrected by write.
The backup GPT table is not on the end of the device. This problem will be corrected by write.
This disk is currently in use – repartitioning is probably a bad idea.
It’s recommended to umount all file systems, and swapoff all swap
partitions on this disk.
