Hey, the Windows 8.1 installer does not recognize the GPT partition tables created with cfdisk. It claims it will need to initialize the entire disk to install Windows. Reading-in the cfdisk-created table and writing-back the very same table with parted, makes the Windows installer recognizes it, and Windows just its two additional partitions. I've installed Windows on that box now and don't want to try this again, but maybe looking at the difference what parted will change in the cfdisk created table is sufficient to find the bug.
