The BIOS cannot access the part of a disk beyond 2 TiB. So when booting
from BIOS on a disk larger than 2 TiB, you should may sure that anything
required to boot (typically /boot) resides below this limit. Your ext4
root partition extends beyond the limit so there is no such guarantee. I
advise to create a small partition for /boot right after the bios_grub
partition.
