Timur,

fdisk manipulates DOS-style partition maps. Have you compiled these into your latest kernel? You don't actually have any errors in the below messages, other than the partition map being unreadable...

Yes, that was it!  Thank you very much.  All I had to do was select "PC BIOS (MSDOS partition tables) support" configuration option, and that was it.
