Interesting. My personal experience has been the opposite: cfdisk
writes (and demands) better formed partition tables, so sometimes crap
that fdisk can read/write will not work with cfdisk. But of course,
YMMV. Since we are bringing up alternative fdisk programs, what about
sfdisk? I wouldn't put money on it, but it won't hurt to try.
