Comment:

 Nope. The PartitionMapWriter hands in a 512 byte sized partition_table but
 writes fBlockSize, which in this case happens to be 2048. Though I don't
 understand why it wouldn't simply write sizeof(partition_table). Why would
 you want to overwrite the rest of the block? I've therefore taken the
 liberty to just write the size of the partition_table for now so that it
 doesn't crash (and only read the size of the partition table so it doesn't
 corrupt random memory). Fixed in r32857.
