I can't respond without knowing the partition type bytes for all of them, and
the Windows version.
I may also need to see the actual MBR table entries, as that order is
non-standard and apparently
out of order. I might even need to copy that whole MBR sector to a disk to see
what's really going
on there.
I also have:
Disk /dev/sda: 19457 cylinders, 255 heads, 63 sectors/track
Units = cylinders of 8225280 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0

OT: do you have any idea, why and how sfdisk determines the number of heads on the disk differently
above, 240 vs. 255 ?
The Windows version is all XP SR-3 here.
