Interestingly, while

Number  Start    End      Size     Type      File system  Flags
 1      1s       204799s  204799s  extended               lba
 6      3s       202751s  202749s  logical
 5      202752s  204799s  2048s    logical

does lack of space between logical partitions Parted doesn't complain,
while after I fix the order of partitions using fdisk like this

Device  Start    End Sectors  Size Id Type
1           1 204799  204799  100M  f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
5           3 202751  202749   99M 83 Linux
6      202752 204799    2048    1M 83 Linux

Parted starts to crash...
