Ah -- your 'c' partition does not start at 0.

It's an old FreeBSD partition on your disk. That should not work; it
is bunk. We are removing the code from the kernel that allows it to
work, because it requires extra stupid checks all over the place to
support an old 386BSD stupidity.

I hope that our new disklabel command, upon re-writing that label, will
repair that.

Todd? That's the way to handle this, right?
