>Description:

While netbooting my ofppc machine on NetBSD 4.99.49, I accidentally ran
fdisk -u and forgot the disk argument, and was presented with this little gem:

# fdisk -u
fdisk: /dev/rpcn0c: No such file or directory

my network device is a pcn0, and thats what I've mounted root via.
        
>How-To-Repeat:

boot with NFS root, run fdisk.
        
>Fix:
Dunno.
