And you got the alignment. 2048, 146802688, 155187200, 155189248 and 870324224 are all multiples of 2048 (KByte), so where is the problem?
No problem. I realized that running the multiplication. The WD "Black" (it's using 4096 bytes) 2012 is different from the WD "Blue" that I am using from 2007. It's very misleading to users. The Yast gui representation shows each partition's _start_ and _end_ cylinders increasing by one cylinder. Whereas upon completion "fdisk -lu=cylinders shows them overlapping. AFAIR New drives no longer use cylinders in their interpretation of physical memory allocation. So all is well in my calculations. Cheers!
