Only 50?? Let's try one: control.

A little bit of googling:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/sfdisk-advantages-over-fdisk-703442/

"Bugs" on fdisk is alignment errors and the hacks being added to the old
program to handle ever larger disks.

btw. I just came across cfdisk - cute little tui for partition editing.
