of the partition. Only if the size is 0 should the
special handling of 0 as first argument be triggered.
[This bug caused offset 0 to give C/H/S = 0/0/0 instead of 0/0/1.]
The init_sector0 function needs to decrease the first argument
to the second call to dos() by one to be consistent with the
calls to dos() in change_part().
[This bug caused fdisk -i to create bogus partition tables with
the ending C/H/S value 1 too high. This usually gives S = 1
instead of S = maximum, so the geometry guessing in the slice
code and perhaps in SCSI BIOSes was defeated.]

Scan a list of devices instead of insisting on all the world
being wd0.
Allow for disk names to be specified (e.g. `sd0') instead of full
path names only.
Sync the man page with the reality.
device driver cannot supply a label (real or faked). This allows
you to practice using fdisk on disposable media (e.g., "dd count=1
<dev/zero >/tmp/junk; fdisk /tmp/junk", "dd count=1 </etc/passwd
>/tmp/fix-up-the-mess; fdisk /tmp/fix-up-the-mess") and allows me
to test DOSpartitioning and labelling on floppies.
