[CentOS] Partition # does not end on cylinder boundary.
Running CentOS 6.3 Areca hardware raid 10 fdisk -l reports multiple partitions with the following description. "Partition # does not end on cylinder boundary." Disks are 512 byte sector size. Raid stripe size is 64K. but if I use fdisk -lc (-c Switch off DOS-compatible mode. ) I don't get any warnings. Should I reinstall?

(performance hit?)No, that warning can be safely ignored.
