Change from using Megabytes to Sectors could have caused math errors,
most likely with sector sizes other than 512.
Partitioning with sfdisk was broken previously, so it wont be worse.
=== End SRU Template ===
Specifically, we get the following output in
cc_disk_setup.exec_mkpart_mbr:
sfdisk: --Linux option is unnecessary and deprecated
sfdisk: unsupported unit 'M'
and the manpage says:
-u, --unit S
Deprecated option. Only the sector unit is supported.
So we'll need to shift to using sectors.
