`err()'). libdisk does! and additionally libdisk gets confused on Alpha
disks with foreign disklabels, throws up its hands and exits. This is
the cause of the "going no where without my init" install bug on the Alpha.
So now on the Alpha, rather than call err(), we print the error string and
continue processing.

with fdisk, ensure that they are a multiple of the sector size in length.
- Axe all the 1024 cylinder checks as they are no longer relevant with the
fixed bootstrap.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Remove bogus targets.
Allocate partition letters as follows:
lowest offset "flags & CHUNK_IS_ROOT" gets 'a',
lowest offset "subtype==FS_SWAP" gets 'b'
the rest is allocated in offset order from this sequence "defghab".
This will generally make sense.
Added rules to complain if more than one CHUNK_IS_ROOT or more than one
FS_SWAP per FreeBSD chunk.
Set CHUNK_IS_ROOT on the 'a' partition in Open_Disk.
Run Fixup_Names in Open_Disk.
Made an All_FreeBSD() function.
Added a cmd-line interface (lowest rank) to the tst01 program.
The tst01 program is harmless (worst it can do is coredump), but it
is instructive to run, you can see what the slice-code things of your
disk...
