I'll fix the problem in v2.26.2. If the goal is to set bootable flag then you can use echo ",,,*' | sfdisk -N1 $IMAGE_BLOCK_DEVICE or sfdisk --activate ... Note that there was another problem with boot flag if you resize partition (commit 4d156d92eb538f9dbc077a2dd181a48d8fdc65cd), will be also in 2.26.2.
