Do not use cfdisk on 2TB+ drives, it gives bad alignment. Use gdisk or |
| 9 |
cgdisk with GPT partition tables. Create a 1MB partition at the start of |
| 10 |
type EF02, which keeps backward compatibility, then partition as normal. |

Note that GPT has none of the primary/logical crap, just create the |
| 13 |
partitions you want. |
