Linux fdisk question (Oracle Enterprise Linux)

OS: Oracle Enterprise Linux 6.2
Hypervisor: VMWare workstation 9


I created a VM and attached a 7gb virtual disk to it.

Using fdisk , I partioned the disk like below. The filesystems mounted on this is working fine. But I am seeing the message
Code:
Partition n does not end on cylinder boundary.

for each partitions as shown below.
Code:
# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 7516 MB, 7516192768 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 913 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x0006b683

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System

Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda2              13         144     1049600   83  Linux
Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda3             144         275     1049600   82  Linux swap / Solaris
Partition 3 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda4             275         914     5137408    5  Extended
Partition 4 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda5             275         914     5136384   83  Linux

Why am I getting this message ?
Can this be ignored ?

DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Oracle::WhereJoins(3)	User Contributed Perl Documentation	  DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Oracle::WhereJoins(3)

NAME
DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Oracle::WhereJoins - Oracle joins in WHERE syntax support (instead of ANSI). PURPOSE
This module is used with Oracle < 9.0 due to lack of support for standard ANSI join syntax. SYNOPSIS
DBIx::Class should automagically detect Oracle and use this module with no work from you. DESCRIPTION
This class implements Oracle's WhereJoin support. Instead of: SELECT x FROM y JOIN z ON y.id = z.id It will write: SELECT x FROM y, z WHERE y.id = z.id It should properly support left joins, and right joins. Full outer joins are not possible due to the fact that Oracle requires the entire query be written to union the results of a left and right join, and by the time this module is called to create the where query and table definition part of the SQL query, it's already too late. METHODS
See DBIx::Class::SQLMaker::OracleJoins for implementation details. BUGS
Does not support full outer joins. Probably lots more. SEE ALSO
