Thank you for the information.
I'll continue on Monday and let you know. If it will not boot with sector
starting at 2048, I will
re-partition /boot sda1 to start at 63.
Take some time to research and reflect on your needs (desires?)
about which file system to use. (ext 2,4) is always popular and safe.
Some are very happy with BTRFS and there are many other interesting
choices (ZFS, XFS, etc etc)......
There is no best solution; but the EXT family offers tried and proven
options. YMMV.

After two days of fighting with it, I was able to get it to work.
It seems to me GPT is not compatible with my old BIOS after all. Using MBR and
an old legacy grub worked.
The fdisk partitioned the /boot partition sda1 starting from 2048 and it worked without any problems.
