Re: Adding an ioctl to check for disklabel existence



While I agree NetBSD needs to support and work well with GPT in order
to interoperate with other systems, there is also prior art in
extending disklabel to 64bits - OpenBSD did this back in 2007 (though
there were a fair few follow up commits to cleanup the fallout :)
