#17177 new bug

DriveSetup: creates malformed partition/table for certain sizes

Description (last modified by madmax)

It may be in GPT partitioning code rather than in DriveSetup itself, not entirely sure yet. Even after reboots, the partition layout reported in DriveSetup is still incorrect, so perhaps a malformed partition entry in GPT?

Noticed creating a partition of size 2n-1 would not show any free space for the disk. Sizes tested were 8191, 16383. Interestingly, 511 did not trigger it.
