If*anyone* has the answer to this, I want to know. Or maybe we should just file a bug against parted, which ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY does*not* want to a) align it for best performance, or b)*TELL* you what you need to align it.

Is there another tool I can use for GPT partitions over 2TB ?

Using gparted (GUIs, why did it have to be GUIs), you at least don't get that idiot warning.

yeah, no gui on my file or database servers. not gonna happen.

another whine is the stupid decmial k/M/G/T it insists on showing. I'd tolerate that if there was an option to show the binary versions all software works on.
