Bug#253214: Can't verify that partitions are of exactly the same size.

Hi!

I was trying to create 3 partitions for RAID use, and I wanted them to be
of exactly the same size.  But the discs I was using were not of exactly
the same size.  One of them had 2 extra sectors.

The problem is that, when I created the partitions, I had no real
certainty of the number of sectors in each partition, and also, I had no
way of changing this values. I had to open a shell and use fdisk to
check and correct this.

I think it would be much better if there would be some "advanced" way of 
verifying and changing these values... Or maybe, there could be a way of
asking the user if he/she wants to run fdisk ?
