That's correct - the save option is disabled because no changes have been
made to the partition table.

Aha! This is wrong. It's telling you that you have a 5GB drive, not an
8GB one. Could you try entering the correct number of cylinders?
You actually have two options on partitioning an IDEFS drive - either use
the ICS/ADPL formatter program to create a couple of extra partitions
and then use PartMan to edit them, or use PartMan from the start (and
tell it the size of the disk).
In general, you should always check the number of cylinders that PartMan
tells you...
