(I think this belongs in a FAQ somewhere...)

Actually the offset is not a hard 32, but the offset in sectors of one
track, since track 0 is apparently reserved for the MBR and such.
This only applies if the DOS partition is the first thing on the disk;
otherwise there's no (discernible) problem.  From what I can tell, anyway...

 * I posted the solution to this not a week ago.  I had the same problem.
 * And to think a few people thought it was inappropriate to post to the mailing
 * list, hmmph.
 * Solved by putting offset 32 on partition H.
 * 
 * Does your version of disklabel not properly install the fstype=MS-DOS also?
 * I tried to file a bug report on that but it may not have gone through.
