You don't. GPT support is available on EL6, but not on EL5.
So Hetzner should never have offered you this distribution.
To resolve the issue, install CentOS 6 instead.

Boot using RescueCD from Hetzner.
parted /dev/sda
mkpart primary 1MB 512MB
set 1 boot on
parted /dev/sda
mkpart primary 512MB -1MB
mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1
mdadm --create /dev/md1 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2
And next create LVMs, format partition and use VNC instalation.

What does this have to do with using a GPT partition or getting partition sizes larger than 2 TB? – Michael Hampton Mar 20 '13 at 10:51
