I'm not sure at the moment if -i implies -u (just checked.. it doesn't)
but you need the -u if you want it to write anything..
-u for 'update'
-i for 'initialise'


to be SURE the new fdisk has been read I'd reboot, but
bruce's changes might have noticed the new mbr being written..
so I'm not sure if that's needed any more..
