 Hi,
 
 >  -s block_offset
 >      of the device file.  With /dev/cdXd this partition offset is 0,
 
 A couple of notes:
 
   cdXd is only the raw partition on some ports, it will be cdXc on others
   (e.g. see the BUGS section of disklabel(8)), so that should be noted
   somewhere - I don't think that we have a good way of doing that though.
 
   how likely are we to crash if the block_offset isn't a superblock?
 
 Thanks,
 
 J
