Yeah... I'm not sure, but I think those bay readers are throwing it off.

I wish you'd join me in IRC so I can have you do some real-time test
commands and fix this.
Can you run for instance something like

parted /dev/sda print | grep "^ [00-9]" | grep -vi "extended" | tr -s ' ',""

then run
echo $?
