* Teach disklabel(8) about different hardware architectures.Ruslan Ermilov2003-03-161-6/+63
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This is aimed at creating floppies during cross-releases. For different endianness machines, a tool like bswapfs(8) is necessary to make the generated floppies readable on the target machine. While here, fixed unaligned access on Alphas. Tested on: i386, alpha Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=112307
* Give this manpage a good overhaul, including the markup.Ruslan Ermilov2003-03-151-327/+398
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Notable changes: - Removed the "disktype" argument from the -B only synopsis form. This form doesn't touch the disk label, and doesn't use this argument. - Fixed the first example in the EXAMPLES section. Support for compatibility slices has been recently dropped from the GEOM kernels, and a bit later GEOM became standard. - Removed the buggy notion from rev. 1.37 that disklabel(8) may be used to define mount points; it cannot. Improve some DOS partition / FreeBSD slice wording. Among these, ``dangerously-dedicated slice'' was just a nonsense. ;-) Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=112290

* Drop the silly notion that i386 has two bootstrap files now that sys/bootPoul-Henning Kamp2003-01-261-25/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | creates a single file named just "boot". Apart from the fact that the option "-s" is now gone and that "-b" should be pointed at /boot/boot instead of /boot/boot1, this patch should be a no-op. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=109889
* Retire the "-N" and "-W" options which implemented write-protectionPoul-Henning Kamp2003-01-261-24/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | for the disklabel: This facility is OBE. First of all, we cannot sensibly implement this in a properly stacked environment. Second, if we did, it would confuse the heck out of users who wouldn't be able to "start from scratch" by dd(8)'ing /dev/zero onto /dev/da0. Third, the offered protection is not comprehensive: no other software would respect it. Fourth and finally, the disklabel is already protected against tampering if it controls open partitions. Uselessness of these options discussed with: peter Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=109872

* In the words of the submitter:Dima Dorfman2002-01-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | disklabel(8)'s "Reading the disk label" section starts out "To examine or save the label on a disk drive,...". This is confusing. The given command (disklabel [-r] disk) doesn't save anything (except to standard out, but that should go without saying). It reads as if the command might save something on the disk drive.
