No .. your in-core disklabel should always have the entire disk
on RAW_PART (c), and nothing for the other partitions.  In your
strategy routine, you simply never do partition translation.

When you open the device, you don't check for valid partitions...
the fdopen() routine should always just open RAW_PART, just at whatever
density is encoded in the "partition letter".
