Ok, thanks; could you please give experimental88 another try? Sorry for abusing
you as tester, but I'm right not too busy with other stuff for performing the
necessary testing myself :-(
Now it is ok for us
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 64 614463 307200 83 Linux
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda2 614464 16777215 8081376 83 Linux
/dev/sda3 16777216 20971519 2097152 82 Linux swap /
Solaris
