As I understand anaconda uses parted to partition (starting from centos 6), using this as example (kickstart configuration file): clearpart --all --drives=sda --initlabel part /boot --asprimary --size=200 --fstype=ext2 --ondisk=sda part swap --asprimary --size=16384 --fstype=swap --ondisk=sda part / --asprimary --size=512000 --fstype=ext4 --ondisk=sda part /scratch --asprimary --size=1 --grow --fstype=ext4 --ondisk=sda
I can see no problems in parted:
<snip>
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System/dev/sda1 * 1 26 204800 83 Linux Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. /dev/sda2 26 65297 524288000 83 Linux /dev/sda3 65297 67386 16777216 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda4 67386 243069 1411177472 83 Linux
As you can see, /dev/sda1 End at 26 and /dev/sda2 Start at 26.
But, fdisk –lu report otherwise:

I assume I can ignore it and it’s a bug on fdisk? This does not happen on 5.7.
Are the disks of the same model? Parted is able to set the partitions so they are aligned to cylinder. maybe that is what is happening?
‘--align alignment-type’
