Sorry for too late response.  I noticed this recently.

I think the original behavior (put the second "*" if the size of
the partition is not a multiple of the cylinder size) is
more useful than the fixed one.

If the partition size is not a multiple of cylinder size,
the remainder part is left unused by FFS.
I think this worth warning.

On the contrary, the alignment of partition start is only used
for the performance optimization.
Since # sectors per track is not fixed on modern disks,
this is not so meaningful.

Opinions?
