Hide all the historical fields of the label, unless people ask for them with -A,
set them to intelligently chosen defaults otherwise.
Distill the manual page to remove inaccuracies, misundertandings and obsolete
information. It can probably still be done better but now at least it is
not misinforming people.
recorded in global variables, rather than checks on the architecture.
Drop horribly code to handle MBR/PC98's embedded in the BSD label area.
If you need to have an MBR or PC98 on your disk, you should not overlap
it with a BSDLABEL, if you don't need it, this code is nothing but trouble.

Don't look for disklabels every 16 bytes, look the only place they should
be for the current architecture.
Always read the label from the raw disk and decode it into struct
disklabel rather than trust a cast from random addresses.
When writing to the raw disk, encode the label properly.
Change name of history file to History to avoid name conflicts.

Don't accept resetconfig command from a file.

Rewrite minor number decoding. Now we have only three types of
object: subdisks, plexes and volumes. The encoding for plexes and
subdisks no longer reflects the object to which they belong. The
super devices are high-order volume numbers. This gives vastly more
potential volumes (4 million instead of 256).
Don't try to chown directories if they haven't been created.

Also, put a small work around into devd to prevent a hang on boot this
would cause because select used to return 2 rather than 0 for no
evetnts due to a bug I fixed a few days ago in subr_bus.c. I'll
remove this workaround May 7th. You have until then to upgrade your
kernel if you want to run a new devd with an older kernel.
where we want to take the disklabel filesystem type of "4.2BSD" and use
fsck_4.2bsd on those filesystems.
Add a comment about why the code is there, now that we know:
* XXX This is a kludge to make automatic filesystem type guessing
* from the disklabel work for "4.2BSD" filesystems. It does a
* very limited subset of transliteration to a normalised form of
* filesystem name, and we do not seem to enforce a filesystem
* name character set.
