HAL doesn't recognize partitions when 2nd partition starts from 4GB boundary like the following.

Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 476940 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes
Disk identifier: 0xf03bf03b

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1               1        8192     8388592   82  Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda2            8193       73728    67108864    5  Extended


The issue doesn't seem to depend on the size of the 2nd partition (sda2).

Attached patch will fix this issue.
