Paul,

The 'cfdisk' binary is included on the 'util-linux' package which is
an essential package for Debian. It is located under the /sbin
directory, which is not included in the $PATH variable for regular
users, *only for root*. You should find it with the following command:

$ dpkg -L util-linux | grep cfdisk


If it really happens that 'util-linux' is not installed on your host,
you can still try to 'apt-get install util-linux' and check if it
solves your problem.

Your explanation, and slowing down and looking in the right places led me to discover an on-going activity of working to get versions of ?fdisk to play better with modern super-large HDrives. Yes, cfdisk still exists but it is, or is destined to be, only a variant operating mode of a new, better GNU-fdisk, which has other operating modes that replace other ?fdisk. All is well, and getting better.
Thanks.
