disklabel change?

[Patrick Welche <prlw1%welche.eu@localhost>]

With a kernel & userland of 14 April 2024, on amd64, I just did:

# disklabel -rt sd0
perc|Automatically generated label:\
        :dt=SCSI:se#512:ns#32:nt#64:sc#2048:nc#2143360:\
        :su#4294967295:\
        :pa#20971520:oa#264192:ta=4.2BSD:ba#0:fa#0:\
        :pb#33554432:ob#21235712:tb=swap:\
        :pc#4294703103:oc#0:\
        :pd#4294967295:od#264192:\
        :pe#4240177151:oe#54790144:te=4.2BSD:be#0:fe#0:

and was surprised to see that d no longer was the whole disk. My
recollection was that peecees were odd and i386/amd64 used d, whereas
everyone else used c. Has this changed for consistency?

That computer's /etc/disktab contains

perc|PERC H700:\
        :dt=SCSI:se#512:ns#32:nt#64:sc#2048:nc#2143360:\
        :su#4294967295:\
        :pa#20971520:oa#264192:ta=4.2BSD:ba#0:fa#0:\
        :pb#33554432:ob#21235712:tb=swap:\
        :pc#4294703103:od#264192:\
        :pd#4294967295:od#0:\
        :pe#4240177151:oe#54790144:te=4.2BSD:be#0:fe#0:

which shows it was the other way around on 29 April 2021 when the
disklabel was written.


Cheers,
