the sd & od drivers. There is also slight changes to fdisk & newfs
in order to comply with different sectorsizes.
Currently sectors of size 512, 1024 & 2048 are supported, the only
restriction beeing in fdisk, which hunts for the sectorsize of
the device.
This is based on patches to od.c and the other system files by
John Gumb & Barry Scott, minor changes and the sd.c patches by
me.
There also exist some patches for the msdos filesys code, but I
havn't been able to test those (yet).

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

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.
