It's not the partition table. There's no partition for that. It's
probably some Windows special partition.
Look like you called it! It is sda3 in this example:

It probably doesn't matter where it is, but you might as well put it at
the end of the disk. You're going to resize the other partitions to
fill the disk anyway, right?
