Check that (a) the file exists and (b) unattended has permission to read

Me blind.
Anyway, it translates:
fdisk_cmds="fdisk /clear 1;fdisk /pri:100,100;fdisk /activate:1"
into
parted -s /dev/dsk -- mklabel msdos
parted -s /dev
onvert_fdisk_parted(...) has a lot of debug print statements, where

Anyway, will keep investigating.
