It may not be relavant but I encountered the error message partition
does not end on cylinder boundary when trying to install linux-base.
The installation invoked dosfslabel which crashed with this message.
e2fsck reported every partition was clean. I deleted the suspect
partiion (determined by running dosfslabel on each partition) and used
every method (parted, gparted, fdisk, cfdisk) create a new partition
without eliminating the problem.
Finally I deleted every entry from /etc/fstab except those defining hard
drive partitions. Then linux-base installed without a wimper. I
believe running verify after creating the new partition still produced
the error message partition does not end on cylinder boundary but
e2fsck finds no fault with the partitions and I have not encountered any
problems with my system.
