This is usually the output when you have no, or in your case likely, a
broken partition table. I did play around with partition table
restoration tools in the past, but I don't remember what tools I was
using back then. Look into packages.archlinux.org, the AUR for more
tools, an anyway good place to start would probably be a tool called
"gpart".

cheers!
