Hello!

As previously discussed there's a size limitations of dos partitions
and all that's possible is to warn about this.

This warning has existed since util-linux 2.15 already.

    fdisk: warn users about 2.2TB dos partition limit
    

After that (the new lib)fdisk grew support for GUID partition tables (GPT)
which means you should now be able to partition bigger disks using
fdisk.

(I'm not sure what the exact status is for cfdisk and the merged
in bug report though.... Maybe that one should be unmerged and
handled separately.)

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
