Hi, thanks for the report. I can reproduce the problem with the attached partition table image.
parttable1.img.xz
Description: Binary data
I see the code has
if (last >= total_size) {
*errmsg = _("Partition ends in the final partial cylinder");
return -1;
}
and the check was added in
commit 7eda085c41faa3445b4b168ce78ab18dab87d98a

Imported from util-linux-2.9v tarball.
but I don't really know what to do about this. Maybe the error message
could be improved to say that this is an unsupported layout and that you
might want to use fdisk change to some other layout?
