With more and more disks being manufactured with "Advanced format" (4096-byte physical sectors) I'm wondering how I can tell the Debian-installer partitioner to align all partitions on 4096-byte (or 1 MiB for FLASH) boundaries?  Is there some parameter I can pre-seed -- or set at runtime?

Thanks for any help!

Rick
