Your autoinstallscript.conf seems ok. The same for your master script. Have you tried to remove the "lba" flag from the extended partition (just replace it with a "-") and re-run si_mkautoinstallscript?
Moreover how big is the disk in your client? and what's the size detected by parted (parted -s /dev/sda print)? It seems you've allocated 86153 MB + the size of the last partition. Is it correct?
