Ok, let's go for something weird: Try parted -s /dev/sdb mkpart logical "" 144249984B 2281724927B instead of the last parted command (that's just a higher start byte). Would that work? If it does, could you find out which bytes work and which don't (you'll have to remove the partition again or just redo the same sequence of commands several times, the sleep can probably be dropped). Thanks a lot, Michael
