 I have fixed a few things and now can not reproduce the crashes (or
 assertion failures in non-crunched builds) anymore.
 
 If you don't have a spare drive to test, you can use a vnd, like:
 
  - grep in dmesg for sector count of original disk
  - cd /var/tmp && dd if=/dev/zero of=disk.img count=1 oseek=$(sectors-1) &&
 	vnconfig -c vnd0 disk.img
  - use sysinst to partition vnd0
  - vnconfig -u vnd0 && rm disk.img
