I wonder whether this is a preferred behavior:

Partition number (1-4, default 1): 5
Value 5 out of range, used 4.
First sector (2048-16383, default 2048): 1024
Value 1024 out of range, used 2048.
Last sector, +sectors or +size{K,M,G} (2048-16383, default 16383): +8M
Value 18432 out of range, used 16383.
Partition 4 of type Linux and of size 7 MiB is set

Francesco
