fdisk?  BIOS?  What are those?  [%]

If some port has such constraints, that's its problem.  Don't hold the
rest of us back because of 'em.  Maybe they'll have to just mutter some
magic incantation at some magic spot on the disk and put the _real_
disklabel elsewhere....

I can't see why it ever was fatal.

    even though I don't work with such machines.
