>Description:
I have NetBSD 1.5.1 installed in the 4th PC primary partition on "sd1".

I have a disk "wd0", it has no NetBSD partition, however, it does have
9 PC partitions (3 primary, 1 extended, 5 logical).

When I run "mbrlabel -w wd0" a beautiful, accurate disklabel is printed,
however, the actual in-core disklabel is not in fact updated.

A few messages are printed on the console, these are from my memory,

	disklabel has been written (at end of mbrlabel output)

	wd0 has no disklabel (dribbled on the console)
	bootblock size is 0
	superblock size is 0
