OK, here's what I've been able to find out about the issue investigating 
it a lot further. Some reason it's saying my drives have an improper 
checksum(See error message below).

I'm doing a build on my X1 to see if the issue also exists.

root:~# fdisk /dev/sda
Detected sun disklabel with wrong checksum.
Probably you'll have to set all the values,
e.g. heads, sectors, cylinders and partitions
or force a fresh label (s command in main menu)
