Here it is (attached). Just in case it can help others to spot strange
things rapidly, I also attached a hexdump -C version of it.

I also included similar files files generated from the partition table
of an iMac on which parted does not complain when asked to print the
partition table. These are the sda_boot-ok* files.

Have a nice day,
