But this is full of strange numbers that someone saw fit to add to /proc/partitions. What a bad idea!
If someone changes /proc/partitions then probably the old utilities that used it are broken. I do not have a memory, but it seems I recall fixing this already. Try a recent mount, say from util-linux 2.11d.
