Its not about fdisk only!
Got same problem with the actual Ubuntu 10.04-3 server installer.
Installed system with mdraid+lvm+drbd.
And when trying to rescue the system from rescue shell -- no good!
Ended up with repartitioning in rescue mode and reinstalling the whole system.

Mate, I'm moving some boxes over from hardy to lucid and I get the same
error when I try to use cfdisk, as I'm not too comfortable with fdisk
and use cfdisk instead.
In case the error means something different than what is reported here,
its FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition 1: Partition ends in
Please do fix this, as this affects Lucid (10.04) systems being
preseeded using LVM+RAID as noted on:

I don't consider this a bug and will not fix it. Aligning to cylinder
boundaries is a performance disadvantage on modern hardware, and systems
that still need it are very rare. You can use 'fdisk -c' to switch off
DOS-compatible mode and avoid the warning.
If you need to use cylinder alignment,
Please move to the right package, I think debian-installer should be the
right one.
Thanks in advance!
