On 1.6.x a 'disklabel' of an ISO9660 cd reports partition a as
ISO9660, while on current (1.6ZF) it reports it as 4.2BSD. Does
anyone have any idea why this was changed? It also no longer
reports the 'disk:', though that is obviously less important...
1.6.x:
# /dev/rcd1d:
type: ATAPI
disk: LITE-ON LTR-4812
[...]
4 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg/sgs]
a: 1196844 0 ISO9660 # (Cyl. 0 - 11968*)
d: 1196844 0 ISO9660 # (Cyl. 0 - 11968*)
1.6ZF:
# /dev/rcd0d:
type: ATAPI
disk: mydisc
label: fictitious
[...]
4 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg/sgs]
a: 1196844 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 11968*)
d: 1196844 0 ISO9660 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 11968*)
