Ensure 1 MiB reserved when moving extended partition to start of drive
On an MSDOS partitioned drive, create an extended partition at least 2
MiBs from the start of the drive. Like this:
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M of=dev/sdb
echo 4096,4096,5 | sfdisk -uS --force /dev/sdb
The resize/move dialog appears to allow the extended partition to be
moved and/or resized to the very start of the drive, over the top of the
partition table, without reserving the first 1 MiB. Ensure the dialog
reserves the first 1 MiB, like it does when moving normal partitions.
