The BBB eMMC reads as 1024 sectors per track. Would it make sense to remove the check in g_part_bsd.c that rejects labels with more than 255 sectors? This is likely a good idea. In fact, nearly all of the bogus enforcement in g_part can likely be removed / relaxed. They made sense in the 1990’s, but in the world of highly artificial values (that often change based on how the device is connected), they make almost no sense anymore.
