Correct. If you want to contribute the write part, please do. Maybe I should
add a "code contributions wanted" page to the NetBSD WWW pages.

NetBSD marks as unknown the partitions with a DOSTYPE that is unknown to
NetBSD. The known DOSTYPEs are for NetBSD1.4.1 :

 - DOS\x (for AmigaOS filesystems upto DOS\5), muFS (MultiUser Filesystem)
 - NBR\x (NetBSD root partition), NBU\x (NetBSD user partition), NBS\0 (NetBSD
swap partition)
 - UNI\2 (AMIX partition)
 - LNX\0 (Linux partition, used for ext2fs), SWP\0 (Linux swap partition). Since
1.4.1
