Here's the official response from Kris at Technologic:
We used fdisk to initially create partition, the partition sizes do not match
up correctly because they are aligned on 2Kbyte boundaries as opposed to the
standard 512 byte boundaries. This is done so that the images may be easily
transferred to NAND flash which has 2Kbyte sectors (the TS-7350/70/90 all use
the same image, but only the TS-7390 has built in NAND flash as well). You
should have no issues in resizing the partitions as long as you keep their
partition type the same. Gparted should also be able to do it, you can ignore
the non-standard size errors as this is a result of the 2Kbyte sector size.
