We use parted for all partitioning needs. Parted is generally more sensible than fdisk, but it might be interesting to find out why the partitions shifted.
Could you add the partitioning code generated in
/var/lib/rear/layout/diskrestore.sh in the rescue system and also the
/var/lib/rear/layout/disklayout.conf file?

This is only a warning for msdos compatibility. You can safely ignore it.
