So this means that we have to find an other way to tell parted the
right settings. Like Patrick stated here
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-parted/2004-07/msg00034.html
this will do only on blank drives, and according to this
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-parted/2004-07/msg00030.html
we have to make sure, that parted gets called twice, one time to
blank the partition table and second time to partition the drive
new. Sometimes we do this manually by dd or just by stopping
unattended after formating the drives and booting again.
I think, we should ask Patrick if there should be something adapted
if the newer BIOS/SATA things are used.
