Aren't there two cases here?

1)  The disk is being shared with other OS's, and these other OS's
    are relying on the CHS notation (DOS, perhaps SunOS?  I dunno.)

2)  The disk is completely NetBSD.

In the #1 case, you WANT to use the CHS notation usually.  There are
``rules'' that make it possible to share with other OS's.

In the #2 case, who cares.  Use the whole disk.

I thoguht warnings were, by definition, non-fatal.  :)
