Poul-Henning Kamp "commit"-olt néhány változtatást a FreeBSD-current -be melynek értelmében a régi (jelenlegi) disklabel programot felváltja a bsdlabel. A remények szerint ezzel könnyebbé válik a partícionálás menete.

Subject: HEADSUP: bsdlabel/disklabel changes
The commit below selects the new "bsdlabel" program instead of the old disklabel program. This hopefully makes the partitioning process more intuitive on BSD label platforms.
The hightlights are:
* All the "historical" fields are hidden and handled automatically unless -A argument given. You should practically never need -A.
* -r argument ignored (to keep scripts working). The "raw"
functionality is automatically activated where necessary.
* default type for -w is "auto". You can now put a label on a disk simply with "disklabel -w /dev/ad0"
Please check the man-page, I have updated it to reflect current reality.
Improvements to both program and manual page are most welcome.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.

Subject: HEADSUP: bsdlabel(8) to replace disklabel(8): PLEASE TEST
Date: Sat, 3 May 2003 21:46:43 GMT
I think I have managed to slash a path through the disklabel mess, and created a simpler and less hostile "bsdlabel" instead.
Please install a -current kernel and compile the bsdlabel program (src/sbin/bsdlabel) and let me know what you think.
Please test it in every way you can imagine, including that
writing of bootblocks and that they work afterwards as well.
The plan is:
1) A few days shakeout (what this email is about!)
2) Some make/release work.
3) Install bsdlabel on all platforms.
4) Install symlinks:
sparc64: sunlabel -> disklabel
i386: bsdlabel -> disklabel
pc98: bsdlabel -> disklabel
alpha: bsdlabel -> disklabel
???: ???
Thanks in advance,
