util-linux w. fdisk/cfdisk etc. should work - i just tested your case in a malta VM w. virtual 3TB qemu disk:

qemu-img create test.disk 3T
Formatting 'test.disk', fmt=raw size=3298534883328

qemu-system-mipsel -M malta -hda lede-malta-le-root.ext4 -hdb test.disk -kernel lede-malta-le-vmlinux.elf -nographic -append "root=/dev/sda console=ttyS0 debug ignore_loglevel loglevel=7 verbose "
