AFAIK only MS-DOS or Windows* look at "lba" flag...

Honestly I've never heard something similar.. anybody has better ideas?

Maybe the output of "parted -s -- /dev/sda print" (and "fdisk -l") from
busybox could help... could you post it?

It should be great to have also the exact error. Have you ever tried to

output of virtual console and post it to the list...
