This is the life-saver of typos. If you have ever been working too long,
|
|
and just happened to type 'disklabel -rw da0 floppy', instead of 'diskla-
|
|
bel -rw fd0 floppy', you know what I am talking about.
|
|
|
|
This little program will take a raw disk device (which you might have to
|
|
create) that covers the whole disk, and finds all probable UFS/FFS parti-
|
|
tions on the disk. It has various options to make it go faster, and to
|
|
print out information to help in the reconstruction of the disklabel.
