Alignment's easy: using parted (the user-hostile program), if you do go in

mkpart pri ext4 0.0GB 100% (for non-root drives, for example), it's
aligned correctly.
i found -a optimal to do weird things, and almost always complain. I
just use -a none now, and specify partition start in (512b) sectors, like..
# parted /dev/sdc
align none
mklabel gpt
mkpart pri 512s -1s
don't start at 0, as thats where the MBR or GPT has to go. 512
sectors is 256K bytes, which puts you on a erase block boundary with
most SSD's as well as HD's. -1s is end of the disk.
