does priority=low.

Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.30.2).
Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command.

The old ext2 signature will be removed by a write command.

Device does not contain a recognized partition table.
Created a new partition 1 of type 'Linux native' and of size 136.7 GiB.
Created a new partition 2 of type 'Linux swap' and of size 47.1 MiB.
Created a new partition 3 of type 'Whole disk' and of size 136.7 GiB.
Created a new Sun disklabel.

- To be clear, these are just created, by exec fdisk.

Within the installer theres no udeb package which contains hexdump. Do
you know any alternative?
