Sorry, it was a bit late for me already; was I was meaning to ask you was to
try

<after reboot, setup-storage exit 1>

parted -s /dev/sdb mklabel msdos
parted -s /dev/sdb mkpart primary "" 32256B 134249471B
parted -s /dev/sdb mkpart extended "" 134249472B 60022480895B
parted -s /dev/sdb mkpart logical "" 144249984B 2281724927B

<if the above goes without the error about /dev/sdb5 being busy you can do the
following without another reboot>

parted -s /dev/sdb mklabel msdos
parted -s /dev/sdb mkpart primary "" 32256B 134249471B
parted -s /dev/sdb mkpart extended "" 134249472B 60022480895B
parted -s /dev/sdb mkpart logical "" 134250496B 2281724927B

Hope this helps,
Michael
