the image works but the format of the drive seems false
gparted when starting says that linux thinks it is a 256k block and not
the 4m it indicates. It shows on an 8G drive an empty space of 28G
Is it the option of bs=4M that creates this problem. The free space can
not be formatted and partitioned. As Gparted tried to claim and format
this space as a 6.7G which seemed right it crashed.
Any advise would greatly be appreciated

I don't know anything about "why", but I regularly see it with Jessie.
Can't recall if it was present with Squeeze {I skipped Wheezy for OT
reasons}.
