Package: debian-installer
Severity: wishlist
In cases where d-i creates partition tables or disk labels, it
should do so using 4k boundaries, as most new disks use 4k physical
sectors. Misaligning the filesystem would result in 50 % degraded
drive performance in those case.
Essentially, instead of 63, put the first partition at block 64. Or
just leave 1M free before the first partition, which is a safe bet
for the future.

Version: 2.25-1
Hello!
The new util-linux v2.25 contains a completely rewritten cfdisk program
which is now based on the new (lib)fdisk code. This means cfdisk should
now work equally well as the new fdisk and hopefully the reported bug
should be gone.
If you still see the problem you originally reported with the new version
then please do reopen the bug report and provide some additional information
about it.
Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
